THROUGH THE VEINS OF TIME

Kalion
When eighteen-year-old Kemet escapes slavery in 1829 Louisiana, he flees into the dark jungle, chasing the promise of freedom. But what he finds instead is a shimmering portal that hurls him into the year 2025. Disoriented and terrified by a world filled with towering buildings, flashing lights, and white strangers, Kemet is struck by a car in the middle of a bustling city. Catherine, the woman who hits him, makes a desperate choice: instead of taking him to the hospital, she drives him far away to her quiet suburban town of Ravenbrook—ironically the very same place Kemet once knew as a land of chains. Hidden in her home, he begins to heal, only to meet Lily, Catherine's fiercely curious daughter, who slowly uncovers his impossible truth. As Kemet grapples with a future he doesn’t understand and a past he can’t escape, a bond grows between him and Lily—one that defies time, race, and reality itself. But secrets can’t stay buried forever, and the more they learn about each other, the more dangerous their connection becomes. Through the Vines of Time is a story of survival, love, and what it means to be free across the centuries.

Douluo Dali: Unrivalled Tang Sect: With Sharingan

What? Tang San’s entire family were evil soul masters? The Spirit Hall was destroyed ten thousand years ago just so Tang San could turn the Douluo Continent into his personal backyard? Impossible—absolutely impossible! If Tang San’s father wasn’t an evil soul master, then how did he manage to defeat three Super Douluos by himself ten thousand years ago? If Tang San and his allies weren’t evil soul masters, how did they cultivate at a rate that far exceeded ordinary people? Their absurd soul ring ratios and secret methods of soul ring enhancement—aren’t those techniques exclusive to the Holy Spirit Church? Back then, the Spirit Hall reached into every corner of the continent to awaken spirits. They clearly knew who was an evil soul master and could eliminate them on the spot. Yet now, evil soul masters lurk everywhere. How do you explain that? And what about the factions that once supported Tang San? The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, once a peak force, has fallen to second-rate. The Poison Douluo’s clan? Its entire inheritance has vanished. Even the Holy Soul Village—where the Sea God Tang San first awakened his martial spirit—has become nothing but a forgotten relic. Shouldn’t it have become a sacred site? Why did it fade into obscurity? Not to mention the Holy Angel lineage—there hasn’t been a single Titled Douluo from that bloodline in tens of thousands of years. Why? And then there’s Tang San’s so-called “Ten Core Theories of Martial Spirits.” Aside from sounding impressive, are any of them actually true? Weapon-type spirits supposedly couldn’t absorb beast spirit rings—but before those theories, did the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect get their rings by dismantling towers? Did the Clear Sky Sect gather rings by smashing hammers? No… Something’s deeply wrong here.
