The rock calmly ponders its class choices. It neither rushes nor delays in choosing. This is a simple being that briefly considers the meaning of this sentence, but does not go too deep into it, and picks it off without hesitation.

Because it's in space now. Stay away from the mountains, stay away from the earth. It doesn't scroll anymore. Now it's more like... spinning, really. If "Rolling Stone" is no longer in circulation, can it still consider itself "Rolling Stone"?

One must be true to oneself.

Rock looked at his changes with satisfaction. There are two skills that have changed, not a huge change, but a change nonetheless. Besides, the rock got bigger.

It likes this.

Then, like the quick thinker it was, the stone moved on to the next problem on its list: the gem that held so much mana that it had yet to begin to absorb.

It stretched out its magic tendrils and poked at the crystal, slowly but surely absorbing it into its body, absorbing the magic deeply and growing its own cultivation base.

Pirate repair activated!

Convert artifacts into energy…

finished!

Level!

1000 / 1000 magic

You have reached the sixth level of cultivation!

You are now in the [Melting Heart] realm.

The energy of the stone is very rich, powering the entire city's mana shield, so the stone is not surprised that it is enough to break through. But few things surprise a stone. It has a stoic face and responds with the same stone-like calm to whatever it encounters.

Just like that, it grew again.

Statistical data!

Core temperature: 1000k

Moving on to the next area = need to break through.

Then, having finally addressed the first two issues on the list, Stone finally turned to the third: its environment. Perhaps out of a vague sense of avoidance, it subconsciously placed it last. Because... Shitou is really angry.

very angry.

Pursue:

Current altitude: 363 300 000 meters

so far. further than it imagines. It's so close. So close! Almost reaching the desired goal, right in front of it. These numbers used to only be in double digits!

Now, there are nine as the rock uses [Orbital Slingshot] to stay where it thinks it is. It turned into nine figures when it was almost one.

It still remembers the appearance of the jade sculpture at the end of the journey. It was an elegant woman in a robe, her figure stretching to the sky, as if welcoming the rock back home after a long voyage. Rock jumped out and tried to grab his arm, but failed.

Because of that person. Not the damn man—that stone had no feeling of hatred or anything like that. It just wishes that person wasn't there. But, as before, the stone is powerless against others grabbing it and carrying it wherever they please.

First the orcs, then the hunters, and finally the dragons. Everyone picked up the rocks and played with them as they liked. The rocks will accept it as long as they help it get to its destination and make the amount smaller.

It's better than being stuck where you are. At least until the last case, [The Grand Master].

But now, Shitou realized something. If China really wants to get to the end of this road, it must rely on its own strength instead of borrowing the power of others. Because otherwise, those people would be dragging the rock along - using it for their own purposes.

I will never see you again. So the stone agreed.

Only then does the rock unleash its senses and truly observe its surroundings.

It saw the planet below. A blue gem scattered across a green continent covered with a layer of fluffy clouds. It spent so long in it without realizing its true form. Because now Shitou realizes it. The world it once lived in...

It was just a very large rock.

Mind you, there are people in it, there are towns, there are dragons, and there are dungeons. But the basic material is still stone. The rock remembers its original purpose.

It wanted to be the biggest rock.

Now, humbled, it finally realizes the monumental nature of its mission. But...it's not hopeless. It didn't jump for joy. It just calmly opens its stats screen and checks the numbers listed above.

Diameter (d): 4.61m

Then it closed the screen and looked again at the planet in front of it. If the estimate is correct...this could be...

This rock will take quite some time to level.

But then it saw the shadows painted on the canvas of the world, and saw the moon rising from behind the earth like a brilliant pearl emerging from the blue ocean.

Another big rock.

Then it finally notices the small rocks around it - they are members of the Congregation of Rocks, which have made their way through the slums and been launched out of the Earth's gravity wells along with our heroes. Small rocks, small gravel. Sand – or just very small rocks.

Big rocks and small rocks.

Then it turned its senses outward, toward that tiny, shimmering orange orb in the starry sky. Or just...so far?

Just another stone - a luminous stone, of course - perhaps the largest of all.

Then Rock realized an important truth about the world. At its core, everything is rock. All the way down. Some are just a little bigger than others. At least that's the case for now. Fundamentally, this rock is no different from the planet beneath it, or the grains of sand floating next to it.

It's just a difference in size and power.

Level!

After realizing the truth about all the stones, you can now sense your other relatives in the solar system

The rock felt a new sensation radiate from it, some kind of field or field, and realized that this was the same field it had first felt in the dungeon - when it began to farm. If the planet has such a magnetic field, and the planet is just a big rock, why can't it also have such a magnetic field?

Everything started to make sense.

And with this new ability, when the stone focused on it, it felt a map open in its mind. Stones, stones, pebbles, so many stones, all swirling around the giant in the center like an elaborate dance of stars. Smaller satellites orbit larger satellites, which in turn orbit larger satellites. Many are as big as the planets below, and some are even larger.

Others are slightly larger than our heroes and are part of a massive rock orbiting the midpoint of the solar system.

This has a lot to do with rocks. It used the [Meteor Shower] and began to reunite the scattered and broken pieces of its legion, a reforged band of heroes. It abandoned its senses and felt more rocks scattered across the starry sky, waiting for it to come together. Its new congregation fell naturally into its new territory and had its own orbit.

Our hero once again looked down at the planet below and made a decision.

In fact, it's too weak. It still remembered the gravity spell gripping its stone flesh, forcing it higher and higher. It... I don't want to go through it again.

So it's not rushed. It will travel through the starry sky collecting more rocks. It will get bigger. Then, once the time comes...

It will come back. And there will be no looking back.

Pursue:

Current altitude: 370 200 123 meters

Taking one last look at its distance numbers, the rock bid a silent farewell to its home planet, freed itself from the [Orbital Slingshot], and then used [Energy Conversion] - turning air into momentum - to begin accelerating faster and faster, Leaving its home planet, heading towards other rocky gatherings it could sense. Towards the large piece of stone in the distance.

It will be back soon. On rocky time scales of course.

A stone has all the time in the world, and it also has the patience of a stone. It noticed the last detail, after continuously using [Energy Conversion] to accelerate forward.

Current speed: 751.7 meters/second

It doesn't slow down anymore.
