Douluo Dalu: The Frozen Throne

Chapter 37 Forced Purification, the True Nature of Living Beings
That night, the sky was clear, the full moon was high in the sky, and a breeze came from afar. Xingluo City gradually became peaceful, the lights of thousands of houses gradually went out, and the moonlight was soft, creating a beautiful scene.

In the pavilion in the backyard of the princess's mansion, Shu Yan and the Ice and Snow Emperor sat opposite each other. The voices of the three of them gradually drifted away in the breeze, like falling petals, silent and without a trace.

Shu Yan took out the sixth-level soul guide from his soul guide. After these days of storage, the cold power in the Soul Devouring Knife had begun to corrode the sixth-level soul guide. Even Shu Yan's storage ring was inevitably affected.

Xue Di was wearing a loose white robe, with her white hair casually scattered behind her, and her graceful and beautiful figure could be vaguely seen. This kind of elusive temptation was often the most lethal.

Seeing Shu Yan's movement, Xue Di stretched lazily, then chuckled:

"Start now?"

Shu Yan nodded and reminded again:

"In any case, it is better to be careful. Purifying this Soul Devouring Carving Knife requires powerful light power or special purification ability, because the body of this carving knife is indeed not an ordinary object. In addition, the evil soul master directly left the curse and resentment in the gold of living beings. After thousands of years of evolution, no one knows what it is like now."

Upon hearing this, Bingdi said with a little dissatisfaction:

"Hey! Xiao Shuzi, don't you believe in Xue'er? Xue'er is at least the most powerful person in the world. If she can't solve it, then there are probably not many powerful people in the entire Douluo plane who can help you. You have to have confidence in Xue'er, understand?"

Shu Yan glanced at Bingdi and said casually:
"Of course I have confidence in Sister Xue. As for you, it would be better for you to attack together with the Snow Queen. The ice attribute does not have the talent and ability to purify. It should be safer for you to attack together with Sister Xue."

Bingdi raised his chest proudly, hugged Xuedi's arm and said:
"Of course, Xue'er has analyzed it with me. No matter how powerful the soul curse in this thing is, it can be easily destroyed by the two of us. It doesn't matter whether it has the ability to purify or not. At worst, Xue'er and I can just use our soul power to force it. I don't believe this thing can withstand it."

Shu Yan laughed in silence, then made way for the two of them, giving them ample space to perform.

As the Soul-Devouring Knife slowly floated up uncontrollably, the green light bloomed once again, even more violent and cold than the last time. It seemed as if one could faintly hear the eerie howling of ghosts, which was extremely creepy.

Xue Di snorted coldly, and the aura around her began to change. An unimaginably powerful aura rose out of thin air. Almost at the same time, a huge soul power shield appeared around the princess's mansion, wrapping up all the scattered auras. On the distant city wall, the three Titled Douluo, Broken Star, Tiansha, and Xingyun, provided a steady stream of soul power support for the shield. The three of them had serious expressions. Although they were temporarily called in to "work overtime", they did not feel the slightest bit of dissatisfaction in their hearts. Although they did not know what the three of them wanted to do, judging from the posture, it was definitely not an ordinary matter.

The next moment, two completely different extremely cold soul powers surged out at the same time, and the green light on the Soul-Devouring Knife was instantly completely suppressed. The next moment, the two soul powers began to slowly merge, and then poured into the Soul-Devouring Knife together.

Visible to the naked eye, the cyan light that enveloped the entire Soul Devouring Carving Knife began to slowly dim, replaced by a pure ice-blue light. Wisps of cyan mist mixed with dark air began to evaporate from the Soul Devouring Carving Knife, and the eerie ghost roars echoing in the ears became more intense and crazy. Just relying on these sounds, it was enough to shock some Soul Sects or Soul Kings to lose their minds and allow them to erode. This shows how terrifying the residual soul in this carving knife is. Xue Di frowned slightly, and then said:
"Bing'er, there is something strange inside this carving knife. First, force out the evil energy and the trace of soul attached to the surface and completely destroy them. We can deal with the rest later."

The Ice Emperor nodded, and the two sisters increased their soul power output at the same time. The next moment, a cold wind blew around them. Shu Yan released his martial soul, and the ultimate ice automatically protected his body. Looking at the Ice and Snow Emperors wrapped in green mist, Shu Yan retreated a little again. The next moment, a blue beam of light shot up into the sky, and quickly dissipated after rushing into the sky. The green mist that filled the surroundings also gradually dissipated, revealing the situation inside.

The original pavilion had completely collapsed, a thin layer of ice had formed on the surrounding pool water, and the surrounding flowers and plants had all withered. On the ruins, Snow Emperor looked at the Soul-Devouring Knife in his hand, which had lost most of its cold and evil feeling. His face did not look very good. Ice Emperor standing next to him looked at this unremarkable knife with a slightly hesitant and astonished expression.

Shu Yan walked forward slowly, then asked softly:
"Looking at your expressions, is there something wrong?"

Xue Di came back to his senses, then shook his head and handed the carving knife in his hand directly to Shu Yan.

"Everything went smoothly. The remaining soul and evil power in this carving knife are very powerful. Ordinary people will be affected even if they come into contact with it, let alone purify it. From what Bing'er and I feel, the evil energy and the soul on this carving knife have completely dissipated. If we break the outer shell made of special substances, it should be able to restore its original appearance."

Shu Yan keenly noticed the difference in Xue Di's words, and after thinking for a while, he said:
“Is there something strange about this carving knife?”

Snow Emperor and Ice Emperor looked at each other, and then they both nodded.

"Like you said, ice attribute does not have the power of purification. That trace of soul and evil energy has been lodged in this carving knife for thousands of years and has already taken deep root. Bing'er and I can only remove most of the soul and curse, but we cannot touch the root. If we force it with soul power, I am afraid that this carving knife will be destroyed. So, my advice to you is to find a powerful soul master with light attribute or purification ability to complete the final cleansing. This is the safest way."

After a pause, Xue Di continued:
"But you don't have to worry about this carving knife having any negative effects on you now. I have planted a seed of extreme ice in it, suppressing the remaining evil thoughts and residual souls in the deepest part. In addition, I have to sigh that this thing is indeed a rare treasure in the world..."

As they spoke, Snow Queen and Ice Queen simultaneously looked at the Soul Devouring Knife in Shu Yan's hand...

Under the moonlight, the Soul Devouring Carving Knife's originally dark shell peeled off quietly, and the black airflow that was originally wrapped around it also disappeared. A soft and warm green light slowly shone out. This light was different from the previous cold and terrifying light. Instead, it had a sense of peace as quiet as water. Under the reflection of this green light, the surrounding flowers and plants slowly began to revive. In just a moment, the flowers dotted the branches again, and the green grass covered the entire land...

　ps: As for why we didn't wait until we subdued Alex to let him purify the Soul Devouring Knife, the reason has actually been mentioned before. The protagonist wanted to intercept Alex in advance, and the Gold of Life was one of the steps. Since he had the ability now, he might as well purify it in advance. With the strength of the two Ice and Snow Emperors, there was really nothing to say about the Soul Devouring Knife. It was a 100% crushing victory, and there would be no problem. Later, Alex was allowed to collect the bottom line, so that his residual soul would not be consumed too much and fall into a long sleep and repair, which would be a bit of a drag. Doing so would just be the right way to start the subsequent plot~
