Seeing this, Lin Fan couldn't help asking the system, "Is this harassnt or is this so kind of prank?"
The system didn't respond when he asked this.
However, that was all the answer that Lin Fan needed.
Since he was already here, he would see what he needed to do.
So he raised his hand as if he was about to create so fire in his hand to generate light. But then he suddenly stopped himself as he rembered sothing.
He put his hand back down and then pulled out the lantern from before.
With a bit of life energy, he lit up the lantern and used it to see the area around himself better.
He could see a bit without light, but it was much more clear when he had light.
He imdiately saw that the green stuff on the floor was so kind of moss. This was a very soft looking moss that was able to withstand all kinds of impact, which was sothing that Lin Fan had no knowledge of, even with his intensive knowledge of herbs and such.
This really was an herb that he had never seen before.
He really wanted to take a sample of it as well, but there was no ti for that since he could see that there was a door to the side of this…room? At the side, there was a large pair of doors that seed to lead into the dark unknown.
Seeing these doors, he walked over slowly and carefully, making sure that there were no traps. However, the only thing that he really felt was the soft feeling of the moss as he walked across it.
When he made it over to the door, Lin Fan found…that he couldn't open it.
No matter how he pushed at the door, he found that he couldn't open it and it seed like it was completely bolted.
So he started looking over the door, trying to figure a way through it.
But he found that there was nothing special about this door at all. There were no designs that could give him a clue as to how to open it and there were no extra grooves or indents for things like keys.
He had thought that he would be able to use the key here since…there was still the key that he had received from the system that he hadn't used yet.
Since he wasn't able to find anything with this door, Lin Fan turned his attention to the area around the door.
He started searching the walls and even the ground itself for anything that could open this door. As he searched and found nothing, he started expanding his area of search until he finally called out Brainy once more.
He sent Brainy's puppets all around the room, which fortunately wasn't that big.
However, no matter how hard they searched, they weren't able to find a single thing.
Lin Fan couldn't help feeling frustrated again until he suddenly thought of sothing.
This had been used when he had needed to find the X and now that he wasn't able to find what he needed to find…would it work again?
Lin Fan looked down at the lantern in his hand again.
He first moved over to the door and shined the light of the lantern against it, but there was nothing that appeared.
He already expected this since this had already been done when he had examined the door earlier.
So instead, he started walking around the room. He moved along the wall of the room, going slowly to make sure that he could shine the light of the lantern on the wall.
However, as he slowly moved around the room, he still wasn't able to find anything.
When he ca halfway across the room, at the exact opposite side of the door, he was starting to feel that this was all hopeless. That is until he found that there was sothing there.
It was very small, so he didn't notice it at first, but then he saw it.
It was a keyhole in the wall.
As for the shape of the key itself…it was very similar.
At this point, Lin Fan called out the key that he had received from the system.
Looking at the key and looking at the keyhole, he could tell that it was a perfect fit.
So he was about to put the key in the keyhole.
That is until Lin Fan suddenly realized sothing else.
"The shape of this key and this keyhole, why does it seem familiar?"
After he muttered this to himself, he couldn't help falling into deep thought.
After all, it felt like he had seen the sa shaped key that would fit the indentation of this keyhole just like the key in his hand.
It took him a while before suddenly rembering where he had seen this key before. The mont that he figured it out, he imdiately looked inside of himself, he looked into his dantian.
There floating in the black hole that was at the center of his dantian was the key that he had received from combining the five stones together. This was the key that he had received as the Void God's inheritance.
But the thing that Lin Fan cared about the most was the shape of this key.
That was because as he looked at it carefully, he found…that it was the sa shape as the key that was currently in his hand. Though the key in his dantian could be considered a bit bigger than the one in his hand.
When he realized this, Lin Fan couldn't help freezing.
After all, everything that had happened had all been related to the system.
If it wasn't for the system, he wouldn't have even gone to et the various god fragnts of the sacred beast race gods. If it wasn't for the system, he wouldn't have been able to go to all those different howorlds without being detected. If it wasn't for the system, he wouldn't have even co here and been given the key to open this door.
So just what was the goal of the system here?
Lin Fan was almost waiting for the system to co out and explain itself, but it remained silent just as usual.
Lin Fan couldn't help feeling more and more suspicious about this, but was there anything that he could do in this situation?
He had already co to this place and to even go back, he would need the help of the system.
He was sure that if he tried to escape this place now, the system wouldn't allow it…
So he really did have no choice but to continue forward…
As for the keyhole, it was just waiting for a key.
Which key should he use for it?
No, there was no choice as to which key he should use.
One key was out in his hand while the other was in his dantian and he didn't know how to get it out. Not to ntion, the second key was too big to fit in the keyhole anyway.
So Lin Fan brought the key that was in his hand up to the keyhole and inserted it.
There was no reaction after he inserted it, so he started turning the key.
He found that the key wouldn't turn at first, as if it was stuck. But when he started using a bit more force, he found that he was able to turn it.
It went slowly at first, but eventually he was able to turn it all the way around so that it was facing the opposite direction of the way that it had been inserted.
Once it had been completely turned, there was a clicking sound that rang out which was soon followed by a loud rumbling sound.
With the faint light from the lantern, Lin Fan turned around and was able to see that the door was opening up. It was scraping along the floor, stirring up dust as it moved, clearly showing that it hadn't been moved in a long ti.
Behind it was just darkness that Lin Fan couldn't see through at all.
So Lin Fan slowly approached this darkness with the lantern raised up in front of him.
The light of the lantern was faint and it couldn't cut through the darkness behind the door at all, so he wasn't able to see much. With this light of the lantern, he was only able to see a few feet in front of him, but that was enough for him.
So without hesitation, Lin Fan walked through the door.
As he walked through, he said in his mind, "I'm trusting you."
It was as if he was saying this to the system, but the system didn't say anything in response.
As soon as he made his way through, there was a sudden loud sound that ca from behind him as he found that the door had suddenly slamd shut.
It seed that he wouldn't be able to go back the way that he had co from even if he wanted to.
So Lin Fan faced forward and looked at the room that he had entered.
But the mont that he saw what the room looked like, he couldn't help being shocked.
That was because this was just a tiny cave that didn't have a single thing in it.
This looked like a place that people would use to trap people in…
So was this all an elaborate trap from the system?
But if it was, why did it want to trap him here?
