Top-Tier Superpower Student-Chapter 696 - 668: Water Monster

He Qianqian absolutely adored those dazzling light points, shining like pearls, but she still didn't want Lin Tian to take risks for her. After all, what she cared about was nothing more than Lin Tian's safety.

As long as Lin Tian was fine, even if they had nothing, she would be happy. But if Lin Tian got hurt, even if she obtained all the light points, she wouldn't feel a trace of happiness.

She grasped Lin Tian's arm and shook her head slightly, signaling to him not to go.

Lin Tian clearly understood his wife's thoughts. But now, with his greatly increased strength, there was nothing to fear. Since his wife liked the light points so much, he was determined to get them for her.

He broke free from He Qianqian and said without any discussion, "Wife, wait for me, I'll be right back."

After that, he leaped into the air and dove into the lake from dozens of meters high on the edge of Heavenly Pool.

"Husband...!"

He Qianqian shouted, but she still couldn't stop Lin Tian.

Others went after the light points by boat, but Lin Tian, well, he just dived down.

It was so high, and the pool was so deep, the risk was quite high!

"Look, that guy just jumped in."

"Who's that, crazy, right? Doesn't care about his life, so high and still dares to jump, idiot."

"Money-crazed, eyes wide open at the sight of treasure, doesn't care about his life for the sake of treasure."

"Look, that guy's been down for more than ten seconds and still hasn't come up. Do you think, he might be dead inside?"

"Serves him right if he's dead in there."

…, ….

The crowd was abuzz with discussion, either cursing Lin Tian or damning him.

Listening to these words, He Qianqian felt so angry she could itch her teeth, but there was nothing she could do. She was extremely worried now because Lin Tian had been in the water for more than ten seconds, yet he hadn't come up!

Although she knew Lin Tian's strength, who wouldn't be scared at this critical moment?

"My husband will definitely be okay, he has to be safe!"

He Qianqian prayed silently.

Perhaps the prayers really worked, as Lin Tian's head suddenly burst out of the water, and at this moment, he was a good thousand meters away from where he had fallen.

In other words, in those tens of seconds, Lin Tian had swum a distance of a kilometer.

"Haha, you big bad guy, you scared me to death!"

Seeing Lin Tian safe, He Qianqian patted her chest with her hand and said with relief.

The onlooking crowd quickly changed their tone, just now cursing Lin Tian, now praising him; truly, it's hard to know if this bunch of people had any shame.

"Look, that guy came out."

"To swim more than a thousand meters in ten seconds, man, what a talent, even Sun Yang isn't this fast!"

"Right, he's truly a master. It's a loss to the Huaxia swimming community that he's not participating in the Olympics."

…, ….

Lin Tian had a superpower, the Water Control Technique. Although not proficient, he could at least swim fast and wouldn't drown. In terms of agility, he was almost like a fish!

He rapidly caught up and effortlessly pursued the people rowing the boats.

After a brief check, there were roughly sixty people going after the light points by boat, with eleven boats in total. The largest one had more than twenty men, led by a man with slight bookish air, a Mirror Breaking expert. However, for Lin Tian, he was nothing more than a shrimp.

Competing for the light points with these people was pressure-free for Lin Tian. He directly swam up to the biggest boat and paced himself alongside it.

About a dozen people rowed frantically, using all their might, but they couldn't shake off Lin Tian.

The Mirror Breaking expert stood at the edge of the boat, staring at Lin Tian, "Holy shit, he's so fast!"

"Row faster, we have to be faster than him, otherwise, we won't be able to grab the light points."

"Yes, boss!"

This time, even he joined in rowing; everyone on the boat threw themselves into the effort, but the result...

Hehehe!

The twenty-plus men were exhausted and sweating profusely, but looking down, holy shit, Lin Tian was still there.

"Boss, he's swimming too fast, we can't shake him off!"

An exasperated man said.

The Mirror Breaking expert was also frustrated. He came specifically for the light points. Since the light points emitted such dazzling glows, they must be treasures, and he was determined to have them.

Watching Lin Tian, he revealed a bit of a ruthless expression. Quietly, he took out a Flying Dagger, aimed at Lin Tian, and hurled it at him.

As the flying dagger was about to hit Lin Tian, he vanished into thin air, leaving the Mirror Breaking master completely dumbfounded. How could a living person just disappear like that!

He leaned over the side of the boat, peering into the water. Suddenly, an invisible hand struck his back harshly, plunging him into the water.

He choked on several mouthfuls of water, and before he could react, his face was pelted with punches, leaving him looking like a pig's head.

"Goddammit, who is it? Have the guts to stand out and face me one-on-one!"

He shouted, but Lin Tian disregarded him, accelerating his swimming speed and leaving the man's boat far behind.

Soon, Lin Tian arrived within less than two hundred meters of the light points. Light more blinding than the sun pierced his eyes, making opening them a struggle.

The radiance illuminated the waters of the Heavenly Pool, creating a dazzling display of sparkling ripples. The splashing droplets were crystal clear, breathtakingly beautiful.

He activated Subdue the Heavens, looking closely, and suddenly realized, damn, these glowing light points weren't lifeless like diamonds; they were living creatures, like fireflies that could emit light.

He had thought the light points were similar to diamonds, planning to collect a few to make diamond rings for his wives, but discovering they were living beings dampened his spirits. His interest vanished almost entirely.

"Ah well, living they are," he consoled himself. "It's still nice to let the wife have a closer look."

However, just then, something infuriating happened. As if they had agreed on it, the dozens of light points simultaneously disappeared.

Or rather, it seemed these luminous creatures sensed danger and retracted their light, vanishing back into the water.

He urged Subdue the Heavens to search for them, but there were too many creatures in the water; where could he even start looking?

As he pondered, the people behind him swiftly caught up. They had just seen Lin Tian following the light points, and then, the light points disappeared in an instant.

So, they assumed that Lin Tian had taken all the light points.

"Hey, kid, I'll let go of the fact you knocked me into the water, but you can't hoard all those light points! Show some sense; hand them over, and we'll let you leave here safely," the Mirror Breaking expert shouted, the one Lin Tian had recently dunked, now soaking wet like a drowned rat.

The other boats also closed in on Lin Tian, shouting in unison.

"He's right. You can't keep all those light points to yourself. We all came today; fair is fair. If you don't agree, I swear I won't let you leave."

"Yeah, give up the light points."

"Hand them over quickly."

"Give them up."

...,....

Lin Tian was infuriated by their aggressive demands, especially since he hadn't managed to get a single light point.

The light points had escaped, and he was upset about that, but now, he was being wrongfully accused, which made him even angrier.

He was about to lash out, but at that moment, he sensed an incredibly strong presence. A massive tail revealed itself from behind the crowd.

The tail, over a meter wide and four to five meters long, emerged from the water and swung ferociously towards the largest boat.

If it hit, most of the people on the boat would be killed.

"Move, move out of the way!" Lin Tian shouted as he waved his arms, simultaneously activating Flight Technique. He leapt from the water, threw a punch, and went straight for the giant tail.

Everyone was startled. They had no idea what Lin Tian was planning or how he could fly out of the water.

As they instinctively looked back, their pupils dilated at the sight of the tail coming down from the sky. Their legs trembled involuntarily, and some even wet their pants in fear.

"Water Monster, it's a Water Monster! Run, run for your lives...!"

They paddled frantically, turning their boats around to flee. Some even abandoned their boats to swim away. In the center of the Heavenly Pool, the shore was thousands of meters away. Whether they could make it or not was a matter of fate.

The rumor of a Water Monster in the Changbai Mountain Heavenly Pool had circulated for years. The media had even captured footage of the monster, which was later proven to be just a big fish, nothing more.

People remained skeptical about the truth. When in danger, they tend to imagine their enemy as more powerful, so, driven by fear, they thought of the Water Monster and fled desperately.

Regardless of whether this creature was the rumored Water Monster, its tail indicated an enormous body size. It could kill these people effortlessly. Lin Tian acted to save them.

The appearance of the "Water Monster" not only caused chaos in the pool but also on the shore. The onlooking tourists began to scream and ran outwards, pushing and shoving, causing some to get trampled into serious injury, even death.

Meanwhile, the most worried person was He Qianqian. She was not only concerned but also full of regret and self-blame!

The "Water Monster" was so big, she feared for Lin Tian's safety. If it weren't for her wanting to come here, Lin Tian wouldn't be in danger. Her greatest fear was Lin Tian coming to harm, and now it was happening.

"Honey, you have to pull through, don't let anything happen to you!" she prayed for Lin Tian in a tearful voice, her eyes shimmering with tears, looking pitifully charming!

Lin Tian charged forward, concentrating all 120,000 pounds of Divine Power into his fist, and struck the "Water Monster's" tail with all his might.

Boom!

There was a muffled sound as Lin Tian's fist, like a giant hammer, shattered the scales on the Water Monster's tail, creating a fist-sized, indented wound.
