Moreover, this turtle was exceptionally clever and intelligent. Once it realized it had been captured, it became utterly docile, looking obedient and ready to be carved up at will.
"Ancestor," Wang Shouzhe said, "can you tell what breed of Fierce Beast this is? It seems like a Water-Origin Spirit Turtle."
Ancestor Longyan examined its shell, patterns, shape, and other features before saying, "It is indeed nothing rare. It is simply a Water-Origin Spirit Turtle."
Wang Shouzhe was slightly disappointed upon hearing this. Seeing how lively it was, he had thought it might be some ancient exotic species.
But on second thought, that made sense. Most Fierce Beasts in this world were ordinary Spirit Seeds; where could so many ancient exotic species come from? Wang Shouzhe had seen Water-Origin Spirit Turtles in the Beast Compendium as well.
Water-Origin Spirit Turtles were relatively mild-tempered. They preferred stillness to movement and could live underwater for long periods. They mainly fed on aquatic fish, though Spirit Fish were naturally even better.
This kind of Spirit Turtle possessed one or more water-element Mystic Skills in its Bloodline Inheritance. Judging from its earlier performance, it had awakened at least two Innate Mystic Skills from its bloodline.
In Wang Shouzhe's understanding, so-called Bloodline Inheritance was genetic inheritance.
Creatures in this world had a habit of passing down certain knowledge, Mystic Skills, cultivation methods, and the like through bloodline genes. As for how much could be awakened, that depended on how thin or rich the bloodline was. The richer the bloodline, the more complete the inheritance would naturally be.
Humans likewise had cases of Bloodline Inheritance. Abilities awakened through one's bloodline were called Innate Abilities, as opposed to abilities mastered through later learning.
"Shouzhe, I think this Spirit Turtle is quite good," Wang Xiaohan said with great interest.
