/ Fantasy / Soulbound: Dual Cultivation
Synopsis
Lucas Graves was an ordinary young man from a futuristic world—until a tragic accident took his life. Now, he awakens as Xavier Alden, the son of a noble in an ancient era where cultivation reigns supreme. But Xavier was weak, betrayed, and left for dead. With no memories of Xavier's past life, Lucas must conceal his true identity while uncovering the truth behind his predecessor’s downfall.
Determined to grow stronger, he begins practicing the forbidden Dual Cultivation Technique, a path long shunned for its overwhelming power and dangerous consequences. But to fully unlock its potential, he must conquer the world’s most extraordinary beauties, forging bonds that will elevate his strength to unimaginable heights.
As shocking secrets unravel and war brews in the shadows, Lucas is thrust into the turmoil of a world on the brink of chaos. To survive, he must defy fate, master the lost art of cultivation, and carve his own destiny—before the past catches up with him.
NB: The novel may start at a slower pace, allowing for deep world-building and character development, but I assure you, the story will become increasingly engaging as it unfolds.

Write a review200 chapters in and the novel is getting weird, from a calm scholar mc to an overly arrogant one flipflopping like he is bipolar. if i had to guess the story and plot were fed into an AI to generate chapters, it started off good but its quickly devolved into inconsistent characters both main and side.
Quite a great novel, though mc needs to stop being much of a edgylord and grow more romantic with time. All in all a great read that delivers good plot and PLOT. Hopefully others enjoy as well.
Its good read BUT it has its issues. the biggest issue for me is massive plot hole when mc being almost lowest of the rug in the future, is coming back in time(transmigrating or whatever u call it) and has knowledge of techniques which were supposedly forbidden in the future. World background as of chapter 68 is big city and big wall around it. character design is not bad but Selene "redemption arc" can be seen from miles away(hopefully not). Overall its good read but definitely some potential was lost on the way
Reveal SpoilerGood start to the story, interested to see where the plot goes and how the MC's relationships develop. Also, since the MC has been reacting to events occurring in the kingdom, I hope he is able to be proactive in the future to build his own personal resources.
Started off really good showing different dynamics between characters and then the plot took off like a rocket which felt a bit aimless to me things just didn't feel connected and the flow of the story was thrown off.
Hi, just a quick question, will he ever find his sister again? Thank you very much in advance! :p :^ :p :^ :p :^ :p :^ :p :^ :p :^ :p :^ :p :^

just the fact that he is still called/written in his old name when he is in a different body. makes it unbearable. like everyone knows and sees him as Xavier, but he still writes as Lucas, which makes the story flow weird for me
