Top-Tier Superpower Student-Chapter 616 - 588: Treasure-Hunting Mouse

Zhang Ya activated her superpower, Instantaneous Movement, which was even faster than Lin Tian's Flight Technique. In the blink of an eye, she vanished from sight.

"Damn it, she got away again!"

Lin Tian cursed furiously. Zhang Ya was malicious and full of schemes – a thorn in his side. As long as such a person remained at large, Lin Tian would never have peace of mind!

Now that Zhang Ya had become Murong Lie's Closed-door Disciple, with the entire Hell backing her, the longer she lived, the greater the danger to Lin Tian.

"Next time, I must not let him escape!" Lin Tian sighed inwardly, clenching his fists tightly, his eyes filled with a murderous intent.

After repelling Zhang Ya and slaying seven Mirror-stage experts, Lin Tian's strength was absolutely astonishing.

He created a legend, becoming the first of his kind, a trailblazer through the ages.

"Run, run fast…!"

The remaining twenty or so evildoers screamed almost frantically, as even seven Mirror-stage experts had been killed by Lin Tian. If they didn't run now, they wouldn't be able to once Lin Tian decided to deal with them.

"Want to run? No chance, with Zhang Ya gone, I was just looking for an outlet for my anger!"

Lin Tian pushed his Flight Technique to the limit, slashing with his Godslayer Sword chaotically. In less than two minutes, he killed all twenty or so evildoers, slaying them even faster than slicing through watermelons.

All ten Mirror-stage experts tasked with maintaining the peace of Death Valley were dead. Hell had come to cause chaos, and it seemed that Hell hadn't just attacked Lin Tian and his disciples, but also the Dragon Emperor and other powers outside Death Valley.

Taking the time into account, seven hours had passed, and according to the rules, they still had three hours before they could leave the valley. However, given the changed circumstances, and with the search being moot, Lin Tian decided to make his exit.

On the way out of the valley, he encountered several more disciples and under Lin Tian's lead, a group of more than twenty people all headed for the valley's exit.

Halfway there, Jian Cangsheng suddenly stopped everyone, speaking in a panicked voice.

"Stop, nobody should leave the valley. Just now, my master used a Secret Technique to send a message. This time, the high ranks of Hell have all taken action, in collusion with Beidou Palace and Shenxing Gate, who were the insiders. Our masters have all been poisoned by Hell's experts, with their Dantians sealed, unable to activate their superpowers or True Yuan. Our masters have all been captured by Hell's experts!"

"Shenxing Gate and Beidou Palace? No wonder..."

Lin Tian muttered to himself.

Bei Kun truly existed, whereas Zhang Ya was nothing more than an impostor posing as Bei Kun. Otherwise, if Bei Kun had appeared out of nowhere, it would have raised suspicions.

And as for Shenxing Gate, no wonder they hadn't participated in the disciples' competition. It turned out they were all cooperating with Hell, with Beidou Palace on the inside and Shenxing Gate on the outside, seamlessly orchestrated.

"What, what should we do then?"

"What to do?"

…, ….

Everyone was startled all at once. Their masters were the leaders of their sects, people who could shake Huaxia with a stomp of their foot. Now, they were all poisoned, their Dantians sealed, and captured.

If the masters were captured, what could these disciples do by rushing over? Wouldn't that be suicide?

Even Lin Tian was at a loss. Since the outside was already under Hell's control, leaving now would be akin to seeking death. Not only would they fail to rescue the Dragon Emperor and the others, but they would also likely be doomed themselves.

Then, another message entered Jian Cangsheng's mind.

Jian Cangsheng's expression brightened.

"What's happened?" Lin Tian asked, sensing that the situation had changed, that there was a turn of events.

Jian Cangsheng said excitedly, "My master is well-versed in medicinal herbs, and he has identified the poison he was afflicted with as a type called Five Blessings Powder, which can seal a person's dantian. To cure this poison, there is only one herb that will do, a spiritual medicine known as the Red Flame Flower."

"My master told us to find the Red Flame Flower and go save them."

"Red Flame Flower?" Lin Tian wondered, then asked, "What is that, and where can it be found?"

Jian Cangsheng shook his head. Clearly, he had no research on spiritual medicine, and this Red Flame Flower seemed to be something he had never even heard of.

"Perhaps I can give it a try!"

A man stepped forward. His name was Chen Long, a disciple of the Five Elements sect. It was he who had burst forth to find Lin Tian, thus saving Jian Cangsheng and the others' lives. He was a solid man, and Lin Tian had a favorable impression of him.

Chen Long continued, "Since the Red Flame Flower can cure the poison of the Five Blessings Powder, it must be a rare spiritual medicine. I have a pet called a Treasure-hunting Mouse, which is extremely sensitive to treasures and can detect treasures within a hundred li radius. If there is a Red Flame Flower within our hundred li, the Treasure-hunting Mouse will surely find it, but if there isn't one, I'm helpless."

"Good, then please try it right away," Lin Tian said.

The Red Flame Flower, being a spiritual medicine, was a rarity in today's technological society. In the wild, a fifty-year-old ginseng could be termed a treasure, let alone a Red Flame Flower that could cure the poison of the Five Blessings Powder. It was feared that there were not many Red Flame Flowers throughout Huaxia, but could there be one within this hundred li radius?

Nevertheless, Death Valley had not been exploited by humans, so if there was a Red Flame Flower, it wasn't impossible, just unlikely.

Everything depended on luck. Now, they could only hope for the best in a desperate situation.

With everyone's agreement, Chen Long took out a golden mouse from his bosom.

This was the Treasure-hunting Mouse.

The Treasure-hunting Mouse was the size of a normal mouse, covered in golden fur. Its whiskers were exceptionally long, measuring twenty centimeters, even longer than its body. Aside from that, it was not much different from an ordinary mouse; there were no other noticeable features.

"Ssst..."

The Treasure-hunting Mouse had been fast asleep with its eyes shut, but at the sound of Chen Long's whistle, its little ears perked up, and soon after, its small eyes opened drowsily, staring intently at Chen Long, as if waiting for a command, looking extremely cute.

"Go!"

Chen Long said indifferently, as he gently placed the Treasure-hunting Mouse on the ground with his palm.

"Squeak squeak squeak squeak...!"

After a series of squeaks, the mouse sniffed a few times and then darted eastward.

"Follow it, and we're bound to find the treasure. Whether it's the Red Flame Flower or not, that's down to luck," Chen Long shouted.

Everyone dashed forward, following the Treasure-hunting Mouse on the journey to locate the treasure.

The group followed the Treasure-hunting Mouse for over ten li. Despite its small size, the mouse was not only quick but also had remarkable stamina, not faltering at all compared to the group of people.

Reaching a large tree, the Treasure-hunting Mouse directly locked onto a target, facing the tree and screaming loudly.

"Squeak squeak squeak squeak...!"

Everyone looked around the tree but found nothing. The Red Flame Flower, as the name suggests, should be a flower, but around the tree, all was bare save for grass and soil; there wasn't a single flower in sight.
