Even with Jarx's prowess, he was still continuously pushed back by the two generations of Dukes of Ybra. The onslaught was only hindered when all of them sensed something again
In the spot where Lawrence 'died', the black fog seems to have finished gathering now after the explosion, and now, a black pillar can be seen
The pillar was not as tall as the one in the book, it did not pierce the skies or something and it only has a few tens of meters in leght. Not to mention, it also looks illusory as if the pillar was not a physical object
The demonic pillar is by no means comparable to what was depicted in the story book, a tale of the past. After all, Lawrence is merely a small piece and a remnant power of the Demon Lord
If the former Demon Lord is still here, he could definitely crush someone as 'insignificant' as Lawrence
