Horror Voyage: My Captain Loves Eating Monsters

[No romance, strong female lead, ensemble cast, survival at sea, progression, adventure with a touch of infinite-flow elements] [Potions, sequences, mystery, sailing] When Xia Hong woke up, she found herself in a dangerous stretch of sea. The waters were plagued by natural disasters, all kinds of terrifying monsters, and strange weather. She was a weak young woman with low stats across the board, and from the start she was assigned a tiny, rickety boat. The only thing she had was a potion whose effects were unknown. After drinking it, Xia Hong gained power that gave her some ability to protect herself in this dangerous region. From then on, Xia Hong set out to find companions and journey with them to the legendary Golden Island. There may be a few ordinary survival challenges early on, but once she has more companions, most of the danger will come from sea monsters and all kinds of strange islands. There's very little romance, just camaraderie between teammates. The story focuses on the plot, and the companions will appear gradually.
