Survival Arena

```

Boom, boom, boom—

Billowing black clouds roiled above the ocean, waves churned violently, and Chu Ge rose and fell with the sea's surface.

Gazing at the storm, his heart quivered.

The power of nature was terrifying, unstoppable.

The most dreadful disaster on the ocean was none other than a storm.

Chu Ge felt the mighty force of nature and saw how insignificant he was.

What did it matter how strong a Survivor was? Faced with nature's fury, their strength was nothing.

Chu Ge couldn't help but wonder, could the will of nature be behind the Survival Arena?

To let humankind, earth's protagonists, experience the vicissitudes of life, to experience the cruelty of nature?

Boom!

A clap of thunder suddenly struck, flashing across the horizon, deafening.

Chu Ge no longer pondered, diving into the depths of the ocean.

As he descended, the seabed was quite calm.

With the darkening sky, many fish began to stir.

Chu Ge saw a small shark foraging, and there were moray eels, swordfish, octopuses, sturgeons, and so on, circling around sardines, flounders, and other small fish, with countless jellyfish swimming amongst them—a beautiful sight, like something out of a fairy tale.

Chu Ge swam toward a group of corals to find a cave to hide in and rest properly.

On stormy days, it was not suitable for hunting.

Soon, he found a rocky reef and squeezed into an arch-like cave.

The small fish hiding nearby were not scared away by him but instead drew closer.

Chu Ge did not eat them; he was full and did not need to feed.

With fish for company, the night was not so lonely.

Time continued to pass.

The flow of the surrounding seawater began to speed up.

Chu Ge gradually felt sleepy and wanted to rest.

Some small fish were carried away by the current, a rather spectacular sight, but none of this attracted Chu Ge's attention.

"Who knows how long this storm will last."

Chu Ge thought to himself, the storm's greatest impact was probably on the sky.

Perhaps many Survivors from the Sky Arena had been knocked down into the sea, and he was tempted to scavenge, but after thinking it through, his life was more important.

He couldn't be reckless!

His Survival Points had accumulated to 2,800, which was fairly good.

As long as he survived to the end, Nangong and Ye Wukong, who had died, would also earn Survival Points.

So he was living not just for himself.

Hide away.

This night, the ocean was destined to be restless.

Giant waves rocked the seabed too, given that Chu Ge was not in the Deep Sea; he was only twenty to thirty meters from the surface.

Chu Ge hid in the arch-cave and was not too severely affected.

He saw many large sea creatures.

Great white sharks, nurse sharks, tiger sharks, killer whales, sperm whales, dolphins, batfish, turtles, electric eels, cuttlefish, and so on.

All these sea creatures swam in one direction, very oddly.

Chu Ge hesitated for a moment but decided to follow them.

What if danger was coming?

Wild animals were extremely sensitive to natural disasters, and though he had turned into an animal, he had not yet developed this instinct.

He joined the great migration of marine life. Find more to read at empire

This swim lasted four to five hours.

Late in the night.

Boom, boom, boom—

Chu Ge suddenly heard a terrifying rumbling from below, the surrounding seawater churned, and countless bubbles sped away.

His heart alarmed.

An earthquake!

Shit!

What kind of luck was this?

Chu Ge quickly hastened his pace.

Earthquakes under the ocean were no weaker than those on land, perhaps even more destructive, especially for coastal cities.

An earthquake could trigger a tsunami, and if the seabed cracked open, releasing the Earth's Core's magma, it would be a terrible nightmare for the nearby marine life.

Chu Ge darted through the sea creatures, shooting forward like an arrow.

There were Survivors among the migrating throng as well.

"Shit! That's a fast dolphin!"

```

"Definitely a Survivor!"

"That speed..."

"Let's speed up too!"

"Charge!"

The Survivors were spurred on by Chu Ge's speed and began to flee faster.

Now they were no longer concerned with fighting amongst themselves as Survivors.

Soon, Chu Ge saw an electric eel, twisting its body at an incredibly fast speed, creating afterimages, nearly as fast as him.

This electric eel was dark grey, with a smooth surface and at first glance, it looked like a short python.

It noticed Chu Ge as well.

"Brother, you're quite fast, it seems our paths of evolution are similar," said the electric eel in greeting.

Chu Ge laughed, "Still not as fast as you, after all, dolphins are inherently faster than electric eels."

"Don't be modest, we're about the same."

The two of them chatted while trying to outdo each other, both moving at full speed.

Whoosh—

The two caused countless bubbles, drawing the attention of marine life along the way.

The Survivors mixed in with the sea creatures could not help but be taken aback.

What kind of crazy speed is this!

It feels like two bullet trains!

Chu Ge continued to chat with the electric eel, both casually shooting the breeze. Yet, as their speed increased, their voices became less natural and even a little stammered.

"Damn, this is way too fast!"

Chu Ge cursed inwardly, the competitive spirit in his bones rising to the surface.

In life, one must strive for pride!

Little did he know, the electric eel was cursing him inwardly as well.

"Brother, you're pretty good, why don't you join my Survival Team? I'll make you the vice-captain," offered the electric eel.

Chu Ge laughed, "Sorry, but I'm the captain of a team that's ready to face death head-on."

Ready to face death head-on?

The electric eel paused, feeling like he'd heard it somewhere before.

At that moment, Chu Ge suddenly accelerated.

Damn!

Scoundrel!

The electric eel, not wanting to be outdone, gritted his teeth and sped up.

The two put on a high-speed chase through the ocean!

A massive shadow loomed up ahead, startling them and causing them to swerve around it from the left and right.

"That's... a Mosasaur!"

Chu Ge's eyes widened in surprise. Wasn't this creature eaten already?

Could there be more than one Mosasaur?

He didn't linger, quickly skimming past the Mosasaur.

The electric eel, frightened by the Mosasaur, kept invoking the name of a Divine Beast within his heart.

This was his first time seeing a live Mosasaur.

Instead of slowing down, he became even faster, fearful that the Mosasaur might swallow him whole.

However, to his horror, the Mosasaur also began to speed up, chasing after him.

"Mother..."

The electric eel frantically wiggled his body, generating a current almost spilling out, like The Flash of the ocean world, dazzling to behold.

Chu Ge noticed the water currents stirring behind him and realized the Mosasaur was after him again.

So that was it!

The Mosasaur that had constantly been pursuing him wasn't the one the killer whale pod had eaten, but this one!

He cursed his luck, having no choice but to continue to charge forward.

The electric eel still thought the Mosasaur was after him, so he dared not separate from Chu Ge and tried to pass him, hoping to leave Chu Ge as the Mosasaur's prey and thereby escape.

And so, the seabed race had gained another gigantic monster competitor.

The Mosasaur was ferocious, charging and ramming everything in its way, from small sardines to sheer sperm whales, all ruthlessly shoved aside by its violent momentum.

It chased after Chu Ge and the electric eel as if mad.

The other Survivors noticed the commotion behind them. Subconsciously looking back, they were nearly scared witless by the sight of the Mosasaur's horror movie-like head, and sped up their escape.

"Mama mia! There's a dinosaur!"

"Sea Monster! A Sea Monster!"

"Run for it!"

"Crap! What is that thing?"

"How did the earthquake shake that thing loose? I'm not dreaming, am I?"
