Fans of Solo Leveling are anxiously awaiting the release of chapter 169 of the manga. So that’s all we know for the time being regarding when the next chapter will be released.
With the Ashborn completely awakened, Sung Jin-Woo ultimately destroyed the three Monarchs. Moreover, Jin-Woo slew Beast Monarch, who had escaped the scene, leaving the Frost Monarch all by itself.
To top it all off, Jin-genuine Woo’s army has finally arrived on Earth to serve him.
However, Jin-Woo must prepare for yet another conflict, as the Monarch of Destruction has designated Earth as his new battlefield. Now, Jin-woo has issued a global alert, warning all hunters of the new danger.
WHAT WAS THE CAUSE OF THE DELAY IN SOLO LEVELING CHAPTER 169?
When it was announced that Solo Leveling would be taking a week off, the editorial team at D&C Webtoon was quick to respond. According to the official release, the following chapter has been postponed due to health concerns with the author.
Afterward, the editing team decided to allow the author an extra week to recuperate. As a result, chapter 169 will not be released this week, but a new date has been set for its release.
DNCWebtoon said in an official tweet that they had extended their leave of absence by one week to let writer Jang Seong-rak recover.
The date on which the item will be available for purchase
Due to a two-time delay, Solo Leveling Chapter 169 will now be released on October 13th, 2021 (depending on your location) or October 14th, 2021 (dependent on your region).
D&C Webtoon confirmed the release as mentioned above date via its official Twitter account. However, keep in mind that the chapter may be postponed even longer if the author doesn’t recover entirely.
Fortunately, when writing this essay, there was no official announcement that the chapter would be delayed any further. Don’t worry; if D&CWebtoon sends out any notifications about the release of the chapter, we’ll make sure to update this post.

Chapter 169: Solo Leveling (Spoilers)
The next chapter’s raw scans are still a mystery. According to the web novel, the chapter will begin with Jin-Woo informing world leaders about the impending threat, as shown in the web book.
The hunter knows that not everyone will believe him, so he will open the one-way gate to reveal the vast army that was marching toward Earth.
Upon arrival in China, a big gate will be opened for Jin-Woo, which will occur in Canada. It will be in Canada, though, that a dangerous force will manifest itself.
Things will only become worse without Jin-Woo to deal with the threat that will soon emerge in Canada.
