There was only silence that met Lin Fan's question.
Tian Tian turned to look at Lin Fan who was talking to this blue orb and asked, "What's going on?"
Lin Fan didn't reply as he took out his sword.
He brought his sword right over the blue orb and said, "Since you're not willing to talk, then don't blame me for being impolite."
The blue orb was still silent, but as Lin Fan's sword drew closer and closer, it finally couldn't keep its cool as it blurted out, "Wait, wait! Stop! Don't kill me!"
Tian Tian looked at the blue orb in shock when she heard this and after a while, she said in a dazed voice, "It can talk?"
Lin Fan just stopped his sword with a smile on his face as he looked at the blue orb. Then he said, "You're finally willing to talk?"
The blue orb immediately said in a humble voice, "Yes, yes, I'll tell you whatever you want! Please just spare me!"
If the blue orb had a body and limbs, it would definitely be kneeling in front of Lin Fan right now. However, since it didn't have these things, the only thing that it could do was beg Lin Fan to spare it.
Lin Fan looked at the blue orb with a strange smile before asking, "How did you get here?"
The blue orb was surprised to hear Lin Fan's question, but at this point, it didn't have any other choice since it was desperate to live, so it immediately answered the question, "I don't know either. I just formed a few days ago and found myself in this place."
Lin Fan knitted his brows when he heard this since it didn't conform with the guesses that he had.
He had almost been certain that this dungeon core was some kind of transmigrator, but that didn't seem to be the case now.
But he still had questions that he had to ask, "So how did you learn those phrases like 'LOL' and '666'?"
The dungeon core was silent for a bit as it was trying to figure out how to explain things to Lin Fan. After all, to the dungeon core, Lin Fan was nothing more than a primitive native of this ancient cultivation world.
If it were to explain things like technology to Lin Fan, it knew that it would be hard for Lin Fan to understand.
So after a long pause, the dungeon core finally said, "Uh, I have something called a dungeon system, it's what I use to manage the dungeon. I can exchange points with the dungeon system for things and among them are things called dramas…Dramas are shows that you can watch…Shows are recordings of novels and stories that humans make…Recordings are…"
The dungeon core was about to continue on with a very long spiral until Lin Fan suddenly raised his hand to stop it, sparing himself from having to painfully listen to this spiral. After all, it was trying to explain things that he already knew.
As for Tian Tian, she just silently listened on the side, not understanding a single thing that the two of them had been talking about.
Lin Fan finally decided to use his Appraisal Eyes on the dungeon core.
He wasn't sure if it would give him the information that he needed, so he tried talking to the dungeon core first, but it seemed that the dungeon core didn't really have any information for him.
[Dungeon Core 695]
Rank: F Rank Dungeon Core
The 695th dungeon core born in this world. Was born from the excess magic power found in this location that had once been suppressed by a divine artifact.
Lin Fan couldn't help knitting his brows even deeper when he read this.
It seemed like it was related to him after all…The divine artifact that the description had mentioned, wasn't that the divine artifact that he had given back to Aphrodite when he first found this place?
It seemed like there had been magic power left here by Aphrodite's divine artifact and that had been gathered together to form this dungeon core. So it could be said that the sudden change with this cave was all because of him.
Seeing that Lin Fan had deeply knitted brows, the dungeon core began feeling even more nervous.
At this point, it was almost certain that its answers hadn't been able to satisfy Lin Fan and it was also almost certain that Lin Fan would destroy it…
But it had so much to live for!
So without hesitation, the dungeon core was about to beg for its life again.
But before it could even say anything, there was the tip of a sword that suddenly appeared out of thin air.
The tip of this sword appeared right behind Lin Fan, but since he had been lost in thought about the dungeon core and it had appeared behind him, he hadn't noticed it yet.
The tip of the sword was aimed right at Lin Fan's back and it stabbed forward the moment that it appeared, about to stab right into Lin Fan where his heart was.
Tian Tian who had been behind Lin Fan noticed this sword as soon as it appeared and without any hesitation, she jumped in between Lin Fan and that sword.
When Lin Fan finally noticed the sword and turned around, it was already too late since the sword had already stabbed right into Tian Tian's chest.
The sword went right into Tian Tian's chest and she spat out a mouthful of blood.
After stabbing Tian Tian, the sword was pulled back in a spray of blood. Right as the sword was pulled out, Tian Tian fell back into Lin Fan's arms.
At the same time, the owner of the sword was revealed.
It was a young man holding the sword and another young man who was standing beside him. Neither of them were people that Lin Fan recognized, so he couldn't understand why they had suddenly attacked him or how they had suddenly appeared in this place.
But he didn't have time to think about that now as he turned his attention back to the critically injured Tian Tian in his arms.
She had a large blood hole right in the center of her chest and Lin Fan could even see the organs inside of her through this hole, showing just how serious this injury was.
He couldn't help asking, "Why did you do that?"
Tian Tian couldn't help revealing a smile as she said in a weak voice, "I wonder why…myself."
But then she lost consciousness and said nothing else.
Lin Fan knew that if he didn't do anything, she would definitely die soon…
So after a moment of hesitation, Lin Fan took out something from the Pet Storage Space.
There was now a leaf that was in Lin Fan's hand.
This was a leaf from the little World Tree sprout inside of the Pet Storage Space, the only one that had been grown so far.
Naturally, it was weaker than the actual World Tree Leaf that Lin Fan had received from Flora since this was only a World Tree Leaf from a World Tree sprout, but he hoped that it would be able to save her since it still contained a powerful life energy.
As soon as he took it out, Lin Fan crushed the leaf in his hand and then spread the powder over Tian Tian's wounds.
As he had expected, the powerful life energy inside of the young World Tree Leaf was immediately absorbed by Tian Tian and her wound started healing at a visible rate. In less than a minute, the hole in her chest had already completely closed and her face wasn't as pale as before.
After seeing this, Lin Fan let out a sigh of relief as he could see that her face was slowly getting better. He could also see that her HP bar was slowly filling back up, so it seemed like she would be fine.
Then he turned his attention to the two young men who had appeared in this room.
The two of them had been silently watching Lin Fan since they could feel a powerful energy in the leaf that he had suddenly taken out. They were afraid that it was some kind of powerful item that he wanted to use against them, so they didn't dare make any rash moves.
But after seeing that it was just something that he used to heal Tian Tian, their hearts dropped back down and they were feeling confident again.
Lin Fan put Tian Tian on the side to rest before standing up and pulling out his sword to face the two of them while saying, "Who are you? What do you want?"
The young man who had the sword looked at Lin Fan with a taunting smile and said, "Who am I? What do I want?" Then his eyes turned cold as he said, "There's no need for a dead man to know this."
Without any hesitation at all, the young man with the sword charged out at Lin Fan, swinging it right at his face.
But this time, Lin Fan was able to easily follow the path of his sword since he hadn't been caught off guard. He dodged out of the way of the sword and then with his own sword, he slashed out at the young man.
The young man was surprised to see Lin Fan dodging his attack and he was even more surprised by Lin Fan's counterattack, but he was still able to dodge out of the way at the last second.
Of course, he couldn't completely dodge it, so the tip of Lin Fan's sword was able to leave a small slash on his chest.
After the young man stabilized himself, he looked down at the wound on his chest before looking at Lin Fan with another surprised look.
He quickly turned to the other young man and said, "He's actually in the Seventh Qi Gathering Realm like us! We need to work together to take him out!"
The other young man nodded and was about to come forward to help, but Lin Fan acted first.
"Hayase!"
