Chapter 911: Saving the Wild Boar

Although wild boars are individually very powerful, their strength is useless against swarms of tiny creatures like these.

Once targeted by these bloodthirsty insects, the large wild boar was likely to be the first in the team to suffer from the Bloodthirsty Curse.

The Winter Goddess didn't take Xu Yang's advice seriously. She calmly walked forward without immediately releasing a long-range mental guide.

As a result, she missed the opportunity to recall her wild boar companion immediately.

Soon, the wild boar's aura suppression effect quickly faded, and thousands of bloodthirsty insects swarmed towards it.

Its physical form was already massive, and it hadn't anticipated that these insects could so easily breach its intimidation aura!

Unprepared, the wild boar turned to flee towards the Winter Goddess, but it was too late. It was instantly surrounded by the bloodthirsty insects that had swarmed it.

"Quick! Cast Ice Bind!"

Xu Yang quickly urged her. This time, the Winter Goddess also began to panic.

Seeing her most cherished companion surrounded by so many bloodthirsty insects, she no longer dared to hesitate. She soared into the air, unleashing powerful blasts of ice frost continuously. In just one move, she completely covered the area where thousands of bloodthirsty insects were clustered.

Immediately after, Xu Yang landed steadily above the frozen void, simultaneously activating the six qi vortices within his body. An incredibly powerful crimson fire dragon diagram quickly materialized around him.

Soon, a fire dragon totem, formed from raw energy, rose from Xu Yang's body and began to fiercely scorch the frozen swarm of bloodthirsty insects below.

The entire process lasted a full five minutes.

Only then, using his powerful Fire Dragon technique, did Xu Yang completely incinerate the swarm of bloodthirsty insects, reducing all their bodies to dust under the scorching flames.

Along with them, the Winter Goddess's surrounding ice-binding power also melted away.

Although the swarm of bloodthirsty insects was completely eliminated, the Winter Goddess's beloved pet boar was covered in blood-red pustules.

Undoubtedly, these pustules contained the blood of the bloodthirsty insects, tainted with a curse.

The wild boar looked utterly miserable, lying limp and motionless on the ground.

The Winter Goddess, heartbroken, shed tears: "It's all my fault. If I had listened to you, Boss, and recalled my beloved companion sooner, it wouldn't have suffered so much. I just wanted it to use its abilities to contribute to the team!"

Big Dog stood silently nearby, undoubtedly unable to find any excuse for the Winter Goddess.

The wild boar's ferocious attack by the bloodthirsty insects was entirely the consequence of its master's irresponsibility. Yun Xiao, on the other hand, approached the Winter Goddess, constantly trying to comfort her, while Xu Yang alone calmly observed the wild boar's current state.

"Alright, this isn't the time for that. If my judgment is correct, these bloodthirsty insects transmitted their curse-tainted blood into the wild boar through their bites."

"This means the wild boar has now become a carrier of the Bloodthirsty Curse. Before the curse fully activates, I will try to use my angelic power to purify the impurity within its bloodline."

"However, I cannot guarantee success, as even I know nothing about the power of curses."

"If the Ancient Sorcerer of Extreme Yang was correct, and these curses are a manifestation of divine power, then even in my current state, I might not be able to dispel this Bloodthirsty Curse."

Xu Yang wasn't lacking confidence in his formidable strength; he merely harbored a doubt. If the deity in question was indeed Sword Immortal Yun Wangji, then Xu Yang's angelic lineage might struggle to affect his power.

After all, Yun Wangji and Angel Yuexiu, the previous Angelic God who passed down the Immaculate Angelic Bloodline power to Xu Yang, had once shared an intimate relationship and produced offspring.

Therefore, theoretically, Yun Wangji also carried a part of the angelic lineage's power within him.

If these curses truly originated from his power, then Xu Yang's angelic abilities would undoubtedly face significant repulsion while attempting to neutralize the curse, rendering their effect minimal.

With this concern, Xu Yang began to envelop the wild boar in his angelic light, attempting to heal the pustules on its body.

Soon, a golden light enveloped both Xu Yang and the wild boar. A gentle aura began to circulate over every pustule on the boar's body, gradually purifying the poisoned scars.

However, Xu Yang soon frowned.

Indeed, his worst fears were confirmed. The curse's power inherently repelled Xu Yang's angelic energy, creating a significant obstacle to purifying the inherited cursed power within the wild boar.

"How is it, Boss?"

Xu Yang shook his head helplessly: "With my power, I can heal the wild boar's external wounds, but I cannot remove the negative effects of the Bloodthirsty Curse remaining within its body in the short term."

Hearing this, the Winter Goddess's face filled with sorrow.

She knew very well that a problem Xu Yang, with his profound abilities, couldn't solve would be even more challenging for the others.

"Then, Boss, what negative effects can the Bloodthirsty Curse have on the wild boar?"

"We cannot yet determine the specific properties and effects of this curse. We'll only gain some understanding once the curse activates in the wild boar and we can observe its specific manifestations."

"If my judgment is correct, the Bloodthirsty Curse is a power that can induce a berserk state in the host, somewhat similar to what we observed in the previous wolf pack."

Hearing Xu Yang's words, Big Dog and Yun Xiao nearby revealed worried expressions.

The wild boar's combat strength was already formidable. If it were truly enhanced by the Bloodthirsty Curse and turned berserk, potentially harming its teammates, the situation could become much worse.

The Winter Goddess knelt beside the wild boar, which lay sleeping on the ground, and gently stroked its head.
