The Living Altar

In a world that’s secretly a living prison for an ancient god, survival means embracing the very corruption that devours your soul. Follow a death-fearing outcast as he claws his way through a nightmare realm where power is poison, truth is forbidden, and every step toward strength twists him further from humanity. With a cursed artifact whispering in his ear and no one to trust, he must master forbidden arts that unleash disasters just to stay alive—only to discover that salvation demands the ultimate sacrifice. A dark, relentless ascent from desperation to damnation, where the only way to save everyone is to become the monster that locks away the abyss forever.
