Building an Eternal Dynasty: The Eternal Legacy System

The Prosperity of the Salvatore Family

”No need to be so surprised.”

Victor smiled faintly.

”The future of the Salvatore Family extends far beyond this.”

His voice remained calm, yet every word carried unwavering confidence.

There was no arrogance.

No boastfulness.

Only absolute certainty.

Hearing those words, Max slowly took a deep breath and suppressed the excitement rising within him.

He nodded firmly.

”I understand, Elder Brother.”

His heart was filled with admiration.

Ever since Victor became the Patriarch, everything within the Salvatore Family had changed.

The family’s strength had risen at an unbelievable pace.

Its foundation had become deeper than ever before.

Even opportunities that once seemed completely out of reach were now arriving at their doorstep.

If this continued...

Perhaps...

Perhaps he really would reunite with his missing wife one day.

That thought alone filled him with renewed determination.

Victor looked at him before speaking once more.

”By the way.”

”Pass down an order.”

”From now on, all children between seven and eighteen years old are to enter the Primordial Blood Refining Cauldron inside the Ancestral Hall and temper their bodies according to the formulas engraved within.”

”As for the outstanding disciples...”

”They are to comprehend the Eternal Heavenly Rune Codex hidden deep within the ancestral grounds.”

Several days had already passed since the two clan treasures had quietly appeared.

Naturally, every member of the Salvatore Family had noticed them.

Many had been curious.

Many had secretly wondered where such miraculous treasures had come from.

Yet no one dared approach them.

In everyone’s eyes, those mysterious objects had undoubtedly been arranged by the Patriarch himself.

Without Victor’s permission...

Not a single person would dare touch them.

Max immediately bowed.

”I understand, Elder Brother.”

He asked no questions.

There was no need.

Over the past few days, Victor had already proven through countless actions that every arrangement he made carried profound meaning.

Trust had long become instinct.

Without another word, Max turned around and immediately left to carry out the Patriarch’s orders.

As the command spread throughout the clan...

The entire Salvatore Family became even busier.

Children hurried excitedly toward the Primordial Blood Refining Cauldron under the guidance of their elders.

Young disciples prepared themselves to seek enlightenment before the Eternal Heavenly Rune Codex.

Everyone understood that another opportunity had arrived.

Meanwhile...

The clan’s overall strength continued to rise steadily.

Many disciples had successfully stepped into the Arcane Meridian Realm.

Their foundations became increasingly solid.

The Guardians who had previously received Victor’s rewards had also completed their breakthroughs into the Celestial Gate Realm.

Every breakthrough strengthened the family’s foundation.

Every advancement brought the Salvatore Family one step closer to becoming a true powerhouse.

The entire clan was flourishing.

Just then, a familiar voice echoed within Victor’s mind.

[Ding! The respect and admiration the Salvatore Family has for its Patriarch has deepened further. The family is flourishing. Family Fortune +100.]

Immediately afterward, another notification appeared.

[Ding! Under the blessing of the Three-Eyed Auspicious Destiny Dragon, Family Fortune +200.]

Victor’s golden eyes flickered with satisfaction.

”So the Three-Eyed Auspicious Destiny Dragon has effects like this as well.”

He gave a slight nod.

The greater the family’s fortune became...

The stronger its future foundation would be.

That was undoubtedly good news.

At that moment...

Two familiar voices drifted across the courtyard.

”Brother Nux, dragging me into the mountains for training isn’t going to help!”

Damien Salvatore’s helpless complaint echoed through the air.

Immediately afterward came Nux’s dissatisfied voice.

”Damien, with talent like yours, how can you afford to be lazy? Do you have any idea how well the Patriarch has treated you?”

”Pah! Of course I know!”

”My respect for the Patriarch is no different from worshiping a god!”

”Then why are you still so lazy?”

”How can you face the Patriarch with that attitude?”

Nux glared at Damien with obvious disappointment.

Damien could only force a bitter smile.

He looked completely helpless.

Victor watched the pair from a distance with quiet amusement.

He naturally understood both sides.

At present, Damien stood only a single step away from entering the Spiritual Awakening Realm.

For a thirteen-year-old...

Such cultivation speed was almost unheard of throughout the entire Celestial Dawn Empire.

Of course...

The Eternal Tribulation Sword concealed his true cultivation.

Apart from Victor...

No one realized just how terrifying Damien’s cultivation speed had become.

During the past several days, Nux had also completely awakened to the mysteries of his own physique.

Almost every day, he disappeared into the mountains.

He hunted powerful spirit beasts.

He challenged life-and-death battles.

He sharpened his killing intent through genuine combat.

Only after returning from one of those expeditions had he discovered Damien’s astonishing progress.

From that day onward...

He became convinced that Damien possessed heaven-defying talent.

Naturally, he believed such talent should never be wasted.

That was why he insisted on dragging Damien into the mountains every chance he got.

Damien, however, felt utterly helpless.

In his previous life, he had been the feared Quick-witted Lord.

His combat techniques had already reached their peak.

The Eternal Tribulation Sword continuously restored the experience and comprehension from his previous life.

He didn’t need more combat experience.

He needed cultivation resources.

Medicinal pills.

As many as possible.

Ordinary cultivators feared consuming too many pills.

Their meridians would become blocked.

Impurities would accumulate inside their bodies.

Their future talent might even be damaged.

Damien faced none of those problems.

The Eternal Tribulation Sword refined every medicinal effect to perfection while eliminating every harmful side effect.

Combined with the astonishing absorption speed of the Four Seasons Hidden Spring Scripture bestowed by Victor...

His cultivation advanced at a speed that could only be described as monstrous.

Damien had also realized something.

Nux was completely different from the terrifying figure he remembered from his previous life.

Although Nux still concealed an astonishing killing intent...

Someone who had once stood at the pinnacle of assassination could recognize it immediately.

The two of them had chosen entirely different paths.

Nux became stronger through life-and-death battles.

Through endless slaughter.

Through comprehending the true essence of combat.

Damien advanced through cultivation resources.

Through medicinal pills.

Through perfect cultivation.

As for battle experience...

It had already become instinct engraved into his soul.

Following Nux into the mountains would accomplish very little besides wasting valuable cultivation time.

Watching the two young men argue without any real hostility, Victor couldn’t help smiling.

”The wool truly comes from the sheep themselves.”

The moment those words left his lips...

Two familiar system notifications rang out inside his mind.

[Ding! Current target can trigger a Gold-grade Legacy Investment return!]

[Ding! Current target can trigger a Purple-grade Legacy Investment return!]

Victor’s smile widened slightly.
