Chapter 314: Chapter 314 The World Under The Lake

Countless bubbles appeared on the surface of the lake like the lake was boiled.

The insect seemed to hate water innately. This type of feeling came from his insect’s body, of which Chu Yunsheng had no control over with. It was just like human beings were not adapted to extremely cold weather or hot weather.

The white worm attached itself to Old Golden’s shell, and Old Golden began to float towards the surface of the water after it sank for a short distance. Perhaps its body size provided it with much greater buoyancy than other insects. So it was the first one reaching the surface of the water. Then the next one was Old Purple, then Little Green…

However, Chu Yunsheng, Dumb Insect, and Little Red were still sinking…

Especially Chu Yunsheng, his insect’s body had not reached the second form, and its body was relatively smaller than other insects, but he weighed almost the same as Dumb Insect.

Compared to him, those mice were indeed the most resilient animals on Earth. Even if they were in the water, they still had the ability to swim towards the surface of the lake.

Soon, Chu Yunsheng noticed that apart from rocks, there was nothing around him. Even Dumb Insect and Little Red also swum to the surface. But he was still sinking.

Suddenly, he felt some strange waves coming from below. However, his sight was strangely restricted in the water like a human being. He could barely see anything within 30 meters radius. Anything further than that, no matter how hard he tried to detect it, he just could not see anything.

The waves in the water were getting more and more intense and rapid. Then many strange fish appeared in his sight one by one. They had a big head and sharp teeth, huge eyes, and their bodies were almost as big as human beings. They were like those deep sea fish but much uglier.

What was scarier was that there were not just a few of them. There was a huge crowd of them swimming fast towards Chu Yunsheng.

Chu Yunsheng was startled. He began to swing his claws and legs quickly, attempting to run away. However, his action was useless. The shoal of fish took a sharp turn when it was about to reach him. They were swimming around Chu Yunsheng trying to locate his weak spot. A few seconds later, they suddenly flocked towards him again. This time, Chu Yunsheng was completely swallowed up in the shoal of fish.

While some fish in the shoal were trying to tear Chu Yunsheng’s shell apart using their sharp teeth, many fish just constantly slammed themselves into Chu Yunsheng, pushing him deeper and deeper into the lake even faster.

Those fish did not seem to have any water energy, but their sharp teeth were as powerful as the insect’s claws. Within a few seconds, many scratches appeared on Chu Yunsheng’s shell.

But Chu Yunsheng’s claws and legs were not useless, as long as he caught the strange fish, the fish would be instantly split into halves by him.

He gave up defending himself completely and only focusing on attacking. In fact, he couldn’t defend himself at all. There were too many of them, all he could do was to try to reduce their numbers.

The smell of blood began to spread in the water quickly. The strange fish was very agile in the water. It would cost Chu Yunsheng a lot of energy to just kill one of them.

Chu Yunsheng felt sharp pains everywhere on his body. But he still could not stop attacking. He had to reduce their numbers. This was the only way to save himself.

Suddenly, all the fish around him scattered away in panic.

They were running away from something!

Chu Yunsheng did not believe that his attack would scare them away. There must be something else!

But where was it?

The fish had swum away, but Chu Yunsheng was still sinking. Suddenly, he noticed a big shadow that was roughly three times bigger than a golden-shelled insect swam over his head. In the next second, all the fish that attacked Chu Yunsheng earlier was swallowed by it. Fortunately, the strange monster swam away after it engulfed the shoal of fish.

But Chu Yunsheng was still sinking, and the water pressure started to increase. He felt that his entire body was squeezed together as he sank deeper. If it were an ordinary red-shelled insect, it would probably have been crushed to death already, let alone an ordinary human being.

Chu Yunsheng did not know how deep he had sunk. Four hundred meters below the surface? Or maybe five hundred meters. There was nothing he could use as a reference.

The fire energy was burning fast inside his body to withstand the pressure. However, he felt like he could not withstand it very long.

A few seconds later, he finally saw something below him. It was a huge skeleton that was a dozen meters long. Because of the limited visibility, what he saw was only a part of the skeleton. But Chu Yunsheng strongly believed that the entire skeleton could be much bigger.

“Thump…”

As Chu Yunsheng finally touched the bottom of the lake, he instantly stirred up the soil and algae plants that were originally sitting quietly on the lake bed.

But Chu Yunsheng could not stop moving. Looking at many strange creatures that were swimming above his head, he knew that he needed to find a place to hide first. And then he needed to find a way to get back to the surface.

He was crawling slowly alongside the skeleton. The heavy water pressure made it very hard for him to move under the water. It took him a long time to finally reach the end of the skeleton. The end of the skeleton was a huge scary skull, which could be temporarily used as a shelter until he found another solution. So he quickly crawled into the skull and found a corner inside to hide.

He did not know how the situation on the surface was, but he did not think that other insects would be able to dive down to save him anytime soon. Although insects did not need to breathe under the water, he needed to have fire energy to help him to withstand the water pressure. Once he used up his energy, then the result would be the same as the skeleton he saw.

‘What should I do?’

Looking at the deep scratches on the inside of the skull, Chu Yunsheng did not know what to do.

If he wanted to get back to the surface, he needed to be able to swim. But he did not know how to swim using the insect’s sharp legs and huge claws.

‘There must be a way!’ Chu Yunsheng encouraged himself.

“I can’t just hide here to think for a solution. If I can’t think of anything, then my time will be wasted here. Although I can’t swim, I may be able to walk out of this lake. No matter what, I can’t just sit here waiting,” after a few minutes of struggling to make a decision, Chu Yunsheng finally decided to leave the skull.
