About this listen

Days and Tiers pass as Matt Liz and Aster leave Minkalla. But no matter how much they just want to relax and recover they have the ever present time-crunch of the path of ascension nipping at their heels. To compound issues, they are about to reach Tier 15. That means Aster needs to leave for the Bond Academy for at least 10 years. Can they get far enough ahead of the curve to manage, or will this roadblock cause the trio to stumble?

Don't miss Book 8 of this action-packed fantasy adventure that blends everything you love about LitRPG with Xianxia.

About the series: This is a mix between LitRPG and Xianxia. It's like a car that looks like a LitRPG with dungeons and skills, but the interior and engine are all Xianxia. It features a magic system and progression system that are logically and internally consistent, as well as realistic fight scenes and a rational MC.

This book did a great job of telling many different story arcs, covering alot of progression without feeling like a copy paste and also setting up many storylines for next book and beyond, also i particularly enjoyed the Aster chapters at the end it was something different and a great addition

Great depth to the story

There were lots of info dumps and no real overarching focus or direction. It was also frustrating every time it focused on random characters from other powers, although thankfully this happened a lot less than in the previous two books. Some good milestones were part of this book so fans will enjoy them. It wasn’t bad but I feel like it needs to get back to having some direction.

Lacking direction but ok. Not sure if I will read the next one.

so far this series has held my full attention, with the exception of a few diversions to non main characters while in minkala. this book was a little bit of a struggle. hopefully sets up the next book nicely

good, but not up to the standard of the rest of the series
