William and Fria's faces turned pale at the sight of the awakened Magic Staff. The aura it emitted was suffocating, filling both of them with despair.
Inscribed on the meter-long portion of the Staff were tens of thousands of tiny Runes, around a hundred of which that were currently lit up.
The glow on the Staff subsided, signaling the release of its restrictions and the end of a thousand year wait for the Ancient Gravitas Mummy.
"AHAHAHA! Finally!" the Mummy cried out in joy.
Thousands of years ago, he had been captured by the creator of this trial for committing many atrocities during his lifetime, his Artifacts sealed and his own Cultivation reduced to the Nascent Soul Realm.
