i was wandering how many times does Linley reach deity rank and with what elements.....that is if i understand correctly how the whole deity thing works

anyone have any thoughts on the matter?

[alphaphoenix]

@alpha
Jenny and jeanne you talk about was the same person, lol.. she is indeed helping managing. And who is this twins you refer to? If you refer to twins of Linley children. One is boy (Taylor) and one is girl (Shasha).

Lol, what makes you think they are the same, apart from the similar name? Taylor's wife appear in book 12 chapter 1 and it seems it's the first time she meets Linley at that point.

And by twins, i meant the necromancer girls

Not sure what happens with Sasha though

After going to hell and realizing the ridiculous vastness of the place, how long does it take for linley to reach four beast warrior clan.

[Amethyss]

He'll have to go through the continent through while working(escort mission). They will stop at amethyst mountain for an arc. Then to the port and then across the ocean. They will stop midway and then after that is when they reach the 4 beast warrior family.


I think that's it as far as I remember.

[InfiniteUniverse]

When will the romance between Linley and Delia happen in Book 9? I hope to see a change of events and at least wish to have an idea of when to expect it

Can anyone tell me linleys and war god O'Brien's rank when they meet? And chapter (if possible )?

[theSwordoftheWest]

Very good @alphaphoenix

Thank you.

[Telash]

What happens to Rebecca, Leena and Jenne ? In the most recent chapter Yale helped smuggle them out thinking thete was going to be problems with emperor choosing Blummer over Wharton but that never happend and knowing that Yale will eventually betray Linley at some point has got me thinking theyre going to end up sacraficed

Edit:

Nevermind after reading some of the previous posts I noticed my question was answered already (not directly but by hearing who they marry and such tells me they don't die even if they do get abducted, which likely dosnt happen either lol)

Major spoiler on Linley, Sword Saint Haydson and Bebe

I was reading MT on the clash between Linley and Sword Saint Haydson. Bebe was hilarious - I laughed because MT used the word "click, click" to described what happened to Haydson's precious sword. I can just imagine Bebe's teeth chomping through the blade....[if my understanding of MT is correct]

On wuxiaworld - I am really impressed with RWX's level of translation - almost feel like reading a book proper...

Will one or a group of Tigerstriped Warriors appear in the novel?

Man If the author plans on making a series about the 4th Universe Master I wish it would be a girl/woman.
Then I also wish for the twist that what the 1st Universe Master Hong Meng said which about universe masters limited to only 4 individuals doesn't mean he is counted with. Rather he is the Grand Universe Master.

It would be like the Kais in Dragon Ball. The counterpart of Hong Meng would be the Grand Supreme Kai.

If I understand correctly there can be other universe creators but they will only be able to create smaller universes and will be less powerful than the 1st 4 which does include Hong Meng.

Does linley ever achieve completion god by fusing all properties of any element?

Huh, if I remember well, the Jenne we know (詹尼) does not end up with anyone, she just helps managing the newly founded Baruch duchy / kingdom/ empire...

By the time Taylor is born, Jenne is around 30yrs old and she would see him grow up....so that'd be borderline incestuous

Taylor's first wife is named Jenny (珍妮), not sure what her background is though

Wharton is busy enough with Nina...till death do them part.

The twins end up with Barker and Gates.

Guessing Nina doesnt make saint level and dirs of old age or is killed then based on that comment

Nina, Jenne and Jenny don't make it to saint level and die at the end of their natural age span
Rebecca and Leena become saint level necromancers and live forever (till the end of the novel at least ) with their husbands

How is it that linley achieves soul fusion

More about souls/spirits

click to show/hide spoilers

When one's soul is severely injured, and if one had previously acquired insight into several elements/rules, a soul mutation may occur, merging these insights together, and increasing tremendously one's power.

The kicker is, one doesn't choose to trigger a soul mutation, it may just occur, and upon failure, death awaits.
The higher the number of ways to be integrated, the higher the failure rate, with no one having achieved 4-way integration before Linley.
