After receiving the "Model Analysis Mirror" handed by Snead, Quest was a little eager to look through this magic artifact to observe the memory models belonging to the stubborn rock in the crystal skull.

Sensing the user's will, the runes engraved around the "Model Analysis Mirror" began to flicker.

With a slight trance, Quest's perspective changed, and he began to look at the other party's memories with a stubborn gaze.

The first thing that catches his eye is a vast expanse of land, which Quest guesses may be the Crunan plane from which the rock was born.

In order to quickly analyze the memory model, the "Model Interpretation Mirror" will remove some unnecessary distractions and can only provide the user with an image information display about the operator's memory.

However, this does not prevent Ques's brain supplement.

The birthplace of the stubborn rock, due to its proximity to the inner earth elemental plane, some mountains suddenly rise from the ground every day.

And those Crunans were born in this environment.

As the mountains break through the ground, special energies from the depths of the earth are transmitted to the surface, radiating to some special rocks, giving these rocks elemental life.

Originally, Stubborn Rock was one of these Crunan newborns, all of whom were in a state of early ignorance of elemental creatures.

Every day, these little stone men will follow their instincts to fight each other, taking the stones on each other's bodies that are affected by the radiation of the leylines.

Of course, fighting like a kind does not mean that they are an evil species, it is just an instinct of life evolution.

In fact, even if the bodies of these Crunan newborns were completely shattered and taken away, they would not have died.

From the very beginning of its birth, its elemental soul has possessed the tenacious nature of the earth element.

Moreover, the newborn Krunan, whose body was shattered, is actually somewhat similar to a gamer who opens a new save.

In a short period of time, their elemental souls will actively attach to other rubble blocks and complete self-regeneration.

Frequent respawns will certainly slow down their growth, though, but it also teaches them to be cautious about every battle.

In the memory of Stubborn Rock so far, this time of Crunan's newborn time is actually not a small proportion.

In fact, every Crunan goes through such a long period of ignorance, they will grow up from a small stone man until they encounter the opportunity to become a true Crunan.

The stubborn rock was still relatively lucky—when he gradually grew from a small stone man to the largest stone man on the mountain where he was, the opportunity that belonged to him came immediately.

The "Elder of the Stone", who had escaped from a certain southern Crewe, led several of his clansmen to the mountain range where the Rock was located that day.

The so-called "Elder of the Stone" is actually the name of the eldest of the Krunan tribes, and they will receive the respect of every Crunan, and at the same time, they will also bear the responsibility of this honor.

In the last moments of their lives, they will use their self-dedication to enlighten some of Crunan's newborns.

Some people may wonder, does the stone man also have a life limit?

The answer is yes, even gods don't dare to talk about immortality, let alone mere mortals.

Although the lifespan of the Krunans is undoubtedly much longer than that of flesh creatures, the elemental souls in their bodies will one day begin to become tired as time passes, and eventually they will not escape eternal sleep.

Becoming the "Elder of the Stone" means that the life of this Krunan man has actually entered a countdown state.

Following the sense of responsibility that wisdom brings, and following the instincts of their own race, each "Elder of the Stone" will begin his final journey of devotion when he sees fit.

They would go to a random place where newborns would gather and climb the highest mountain that stood there.

When it reaches the top of the mountain and wishes its blessing to the vast land, the "Elder of Stone" leaps and falls to the ground.

In a collision with the ground, their bodies will be shattered, and their souls will embrace death.

However, at the last deafening impact, fragments of their minds will splatter in all directions, and if a shardy enough newborn Krunan is hit by the shards, it will be enlightened and transformed into a true Crunan.

Because of its proximity to the location of the "Elder of the Stone", the stubborn rock has gained many spiritual fragments, so it is easy to transform.

His body became more shapely, his body more flexible, and the thick rock formations replaced by the carved rock skin.

These changes set Rock apart from the newborns, and he was soon discovered by the Elder Stone's people, who eventually brought him to the tribe of the deceased Elder Stone.

For hundreds of years, the Rock spent its time in this tribe.

He has experienced duels between samurai, wars between tribes, and a number of battles against invaders from other planes.

If it weren't for other opportunities, Stubborn Rock would eventually find a place on the top of a mountain to jump down and return to the embrace of the earth, just like the "Elder of Stone" who once gave him wisdom enlightenment.

But one day, this powerful Crunan stone man encountered a turning point in his life.

He was confronted by a powerful deity—who looked like a weak flesh being, but was much stronger than the largest of the Crunans—and who was Kord.

Perhaps on a whim, or perhaps genuinely preferring the Krunan's majestic physique, the "Fighter" sent a ticket inviting Rock to the sacred arena that gave him his name and competed for the title of martial arts champion.

Naughty rock, who was already a little tired of his unchanged life, gladly accepted the other party's kind invitation.

He came to Kord's arena and naturally became a follower of Kord.

Among them, of course, there is the element of the god's subconscious guidance, but it is more because of the stubborn rock's recognition of his concept.

Barbarism its physique, civilization its spirit, through competition and tempering again and again, stubborn rock found a new pursuit of life.

He wants to be stronger, because only then will he have a chance to become a champion in the arena.

Admittedly, compared to some other relatively weak races, the Crunans did have a high starting point.

However, the multiverse is vast, and the arena of the god of power is full of power.

Titans, half-dragon bloodlines, clockwork creatures of the Mechanical Realm......

Even in terms of the strength he is best at, there are many beings in Kord's arena that far surpass him.

How easy is it to become a fighting champion at Kord Arena?

Originally, because of the new pursuit, Stubborn Rock's heart was full of joy, but after reaching a certain ranking, the opponents he encountered that could not be matched at all made him feel a deep sense of frustration.

Until, he encountered the second turning point in his life.
