Chapter 5205 Playing Dead
- Without warning, the altar convulsed beneath their boots. From the black demon core burst a blinding jet of light, and every charm carved around the platform melted like frost under dawn.

In its clawed fists lay a monstrous axe; its snarling visage belonged to the ancient demon general they had hoped would never wake.
