As the sprite's chosen features came into full view, Dyon didn't know whether to laugh or cry. The little guy hadn't just chosen to model itself after him, it had become him! Little Rain looked exactly like Dyon had when he was just four or five years old. In fact, this was exactly how Dyon's soul looked right now.

"Puu.." Madeleine's lovely laughter filled the inner space. She would have taken this little boy into her arms if she could have. This scene really was too adorable.

Dyon sighed, accepting the situation for what it was. "Little Rain, what do you know about that rock?"

Out of curiosity, Lilianna too looked at the oddly shaped floating rock Dyon was pointing to, but she was surprised to find that she didn't recognize it either.

'Ah, my rock.' Little Rain responded possessively, his speech already becoming more refined.

"Okay, okay, it's your rock." Dyon took a step back.

After giving Dyon a wary glance, Little Rain looked toward the floating rainbow rock fondly. 'My rock is very hard, the hardest rock there is!'

Dyon coughed awkwardly, doing his best to ignore the innuendo. "Is it only hard? Nothing else?"

'What else should there be?' Little Rain asked in confusion.

Little Yin giggled. 'Mineral spirits are some of the more wildly varying types of sprites there are. Some like pretty minerals, others like valuable minerals, others like minerals with various special properties like being exceptionally light, or being capable of ignoring certain laws like space or time. It seemed that Little Rain has a fondness for very hard minerals, ones that grade very high in durability.

'I was wondering why he built a mountain of coarse silver instead of literally anything else. As a mineral spirit, it could have built a mountain of grandmaster grade or even higher minerals, yet it chose a master grade one. It makes sense now, coarse silver isn't known for anything but its toughness. In fact, it was capable of piercing through you, remember?'

'So when he says his rock is very hard He literally means its just very hard.' Dyon sighed. He had been holding out hope that maybe Little Rain was still trying to find the words to properly describe things. But, it seemed that he had described it perfectly.

'It's not all bad,' Little Yin consoled. 'Usually, with a disposition like this, Little Rain should also be fond of battle. He could be very useful to you if you pair him with the right minerals.

'Also, there's a reason you couldn't recognize this mineral. Mineral sprites, and just sprites in general, have the ability to birth new substances into the world the supersede what already exists. You may not know this, but the mortal plane can only naturally give rise to substances up to the grandmaster grade. Every existing plant or mineral of the comet grade or above was at some point created by a higher existence, a cataclysmic or heavenly event, or a sprite.

'This new mineral is likely Little Rain's contribution to the martial world.'

Dyon looked toward the rainbow rock with a new light in his eyes. So the reason he didn't recognize the rock was because it was something entirely new.

From what he could tell, this material would be classified as a fourth stage comet grade metal. Although he didn't know much about sprites, this was probably very impressive for one as young as Little Rain. That said, it was definitely more impressive than what Dyon was giving it credit for.

The material could only be classified as comet grade because it was only good for its durability. But, if one ignored all other factors and solely focused on this one attribute, it was far better than most moon grade and even some planet grade minerals. If it was mixed with other metals to form an alloy, the results could be great.

Little Rain floated to his rainbow rock, caressing it as though it was his child.

'You say he could be useful for combat How useful do you think?' Dyon remembered the keen sense of danger he felt from Little Rain. He felt that within this silver mountain, even a middle dao formation expert of Amphorae's caliber would have no chance.

For context, Amphorae was no normal expert. People already fawned over 9th order geniuses of the celestial realm, but Amphorae was a 9th order genius of the dao formation realm! The difference was like that of heaven and earth.

Of the current generation's True and False True Gods, the vast majority were of the 9th order celestial realm. However, there were only three who had also managed to become 9th order dao formation realm experts: Daisho Ken's elder brother, the Star Clan's young heir, and a False True God of an unnamed Dragon Clan.

Of the rest, there were others with this chance, but it was unknown if they would succeed or not. This was the level of difficulty this feat represented. Even True Gods weren't guaranteed to succeed. Yet, this was Little Rains current battle prowess.

'Within a structure like this, he should be practically invincible.' Little Yang pondered. 'If this interior was filled with his rainbow rock and not this coarse silver, even a half-step transcendent would die a miserable death. However the case is very different outside.'

Dyon nodded. He believed this as well. What was limiting Little Rain was likely a combination of range and stamina.

If an expert was stupid enough to enter his domain like Dyon had, then the battle would be over before it started. But, what if the expert began to chip away at the outside of the silver mountain like most would? He or she might suffer an initial loss, but after leaving the range of the mountain, there wasn't much Little Rain could do.

"Little Rain, do you think you could move this mountain? If so, how fast could you move it?"

Blinking his illusory eyes, Little Rain thought for a moment. 'It would take me 363 years, 7 months, 13 days, 8 hours and 3 seconds to uproot my mountain and move it.'
