Solo Leveling Manga Chapter 161

Sung Jin‑woo suffers a critical blow from the Beast Monarch, which sends him into a surreal, memory-like space filled with scenes from his past—seemingly reliving former battles and key moments. Suddenly, the reality fractures: it’s revealed to be an illusion crafted by the Shadow Monarch (Ashborn). Jin‑woo recognizes the deception and demands it stop, pulling himself back to the present confrontation.
