The beast starts from zero

Qiao Sang looked at the newly added trait and thought to himself, "This trait is pretty good."

"Dead Tree Comes Back to Life" is a relatively rare trait among grass-type pets. Its effect is somewhat similar to the "Firestorm" trait of fire-type pets. Both are activated when the pet is in an extremely weak state, allowing it to recover its condition.

However, unlike other methods, while raging fire can make a pet stronger, after a certain period of time, the fire will disappear, and the pet will become weaker or even collapse.

While "Rejuvenation of Withered Trees" cannot make a pet stronger, it can only remove abnormal statuses from the pet and restore it. Even if the effect of "Rejuvenation of Withered Trees" disappears later, the abnormal statuses will not reappear. It is equivalent to casting a high-level healing skill that does not consume energy.

In battles, skills can be interrupted, but this passively activated trait won't. With this trait, Xia Bao essentially has an extra healing method, although it's a bit unstable, with only a 60% activation rate. However, if it evolves further in the future, the level of this trait might increase, and the activation probability will definitely be higher then.
As Qiao Sang pondered this, she looked down.

The Fragrance of Life
Qiao Sang was stunned; this was a characteristic she had never heard of before.

She looked back.

Its body emits a fresh, natural fragrance that accompanies its joyful mood, making living beings clear-headed and happy. Hmm? Doesn't Xia Bao often have this fragrance? So it's a special characteristic? Why is it only showing up now? Qiao Sang muttered to himself after reading the description, then looked behind him.

To give withered life the possibility of being revitalized.

What? The possibility of bringing withered life back to life?
Qiao Sang's expression froze for a moment, then her eyes suddenly lit up.

Wow, this feature has such a powerful effect!
If Xia Bao goes to the hospital, wouldn't all patients have a chance of being cured?
No, it's more about the possibility of rejuvenation, not a certainty. Being near the elderly person has a greater effect, but it's probably ineffective in treating the illness.

Qiao Sang appeared to have calmed down slightly, but she was still somewhat excited inside.

Xia Bao's most powerful ability is undoubtedly life revival, but activating this characteristic comes at a great cost, potentially causing him to fall into a long period of slumber and turn back into a pet egg. However, the life fragrance does not require this.

Although this property is far less powerful than life resurrection, the fact that it can potentially revive life without incurring a cost is enough to demonstrate its rarity and power.

As expected of the mythical beast that Yan Tianxing called the "savior," it has one life-reviving characteristic and now it has another.

Qiao Sang was filled with emotion, then looked down at the newly added skills at the very bottom.

Three more skills have been added.
Seed Bomb, a mid-level Grass-type skill, unleashes a hard seed for physical attack. It deals high damage with relatively low energy and is popular among low-level Grass-type pets. Many professional Beastmasters specifically train their Grass-type pets to learn this move.

Grass Knot, a mid-level Grass-type move, creates knotted grass on the ground to trip the opponent. The heavier or faster the opponent, the greater the damage when tripped. It's a move that gets stronger against stronger opponents.

Solar Beam, a high-level Grass-type move, can unleash a powerful beam attack, dealing massive damage to the opponent.

Qiao Sang quickly reviewed Xia Bao's three additional skills. She wasn't surprised that Xia Bao had awakened high-level skills; most of the other beasts, like Ya Bao, could awaken high-level skills at the advanced stage, let alone Xia Bao, who was a phantom beast. After reviewing all the information, she didn't exit the Beast Taming Codex. Instead, she took a deep breath and looked at the words "Convertible" next to the attribute column with a slightly nervous feeling.

When Xia Bao was contracted, it was already at the intermediate level, so it was unclear about the specifics of skill awakening. However, if there are newly awakened skills in this battle form, it can be confirmed that as long as Xia Bao evolves, it can awaken corresponding new skills in both normal and battle forms.

If that's the case, not only will it awaken far more skills than other pets of the same level after evolution, but in its normal form, Xia Bao's Grass-type energy reaches 99%, which will not affect its awakening or learning of higher-level skills at all.

Qiao Sang's thoughts were racing.

The next second, a faint green light appeared on the entire data page.

The data was distorted; once the green light dissipated, the data on the entire page had changed slightly.
