Building an Eternal Dynasty: The Eternal Legacy System

The Golden Destiny

Within only a few days...

Every major city.

Every ancient sect.

Every noble family.

Every hidden cultivation clan...

Received the same astonishing report.

The intelligence records describing the battle above Aurelia City were copied repeatedly before being delivered to the desks of influential figures throughout the empire.

Every report contained nearly identical conclusions.

The Crimson Abyss Sect...

Had been annihilated.

Not weakened.

Not defeated.

Completely erased.

Even after reading the reports several times...

Many powerful experts found them difficult to believe.

”A family from a small city...”

”...destroyed the Crimson Abyss Sect?”

”Impossible.”

”Absolutely impossible.”

Yet...

No matter how unbelievable the news sounded...

Reality could not be denied.

The Crimson Abyss Sect no longer existed.

Its countless disciples had vanished without leaving behind a single trace.

Even more horrifying...

The five Heavenly Genesis Realm elders still remained suspended above Aurelia City.

They continued dying...

Resurrecting...

And dying again.

Endlessly.

An eternal punishment.

Every cultivator who witnessed that horrifying sight felt chills run through their soul.

Many fled immediately.

None dared remain nearby for long.

Within the imperial capital...

Several influential figures sat around a massive stone table.

One intelligence report lay open before them.

Silence filled the hall.

Finally...

An elderly man slowly exhaled.

”So...”

”...this Victor truly tore Louis Redweed’s head off with his bare hands?”

Another elder nodded solemnly.

”The witnesses number in the hundreds of thousands.”

”There is no possibility of fabrication.”

Silence returned.

Louis Redweed...

The former Sect Master of the Crimson Abyss Sect...

Had stood at the peak of the Heavenly Genesis Realm.

He was no insignificant cultivator.

Throughout the Celestial Dawn EMPIRE...

His name alone was enough to intimidate countless factions.

Yet...

Such a figure had died beneath Victor’s hand without even putting up meaningful resistance.

The implication left everyone’s scalp numb.

One middle-aged man finally spoke.

”Could Victor...”

”...already have stepped into the Stellar Sovereign Realm?”

Nobody answered.

Because nobody knew.

Victor’s cultivation remained impossible to perceive.

His mysterious physique concealed everything.

The more they investigated...

The more unfathomable he became.

One conclusion, however...

Had already become common knowledge.

Never...

Ever...

Become an enemy of the Salvatore Family.

From that day onward...

Two names spread rapidly throughout the empire.

Victor.

And...

The Sovereign Salvatore Family.

Those names became deeply engraved within the hearts of countless cultivators.

Many secretly predicted...

A new supreme family had begun its rise.

One that might eventually rival even the oldest powers of the empire.

The invisible river of destiny...

Had quietly begun changing direction.

Meanwhile...

Inside the Celestial Fate Pavilion...

The atmosphere was unusually heavy.

Normally peaceful halls had become completely silent.

Several white-haired elders sat with embarrassed expressions.

None dared meet the gaze of the young man standing before them.

That young man...

Was none other than Adrian Valerius.

After several long moments...

One elderly man awkwardly cleared his throat.

”Ahem...”

”Adrian...”

”We...”

”...were mistaken.”

His voice grew quieter with every word.

Another elder rubbed his beard awkwardly before forcing a smile.

”Regarding this matter...”

”...only you can speak with him.”

Adrian folded his arms.

A playful grin immediately appeared on his face.

”Oh?”

”So now you finally remember I exist?”

His smile widened.

”I seem to remember someone saying I had embarrassed the entire pavilion.”

”And wasn’t someone else insisting that I retrieve the inheritance quotas I’d given away?”

Several elders immediately looked away.

Their old faces flushed red.

Not long ago...

They had nearly expelled Adrian from the Celestial Fate Pavilion.

His decision to gift four Heavenly Secret Realm inheritance opportunities to the Salvatore Family had enraged nearly every elder.

Some had even demanded punishment.

Others insisted he personally reclaim those opportunities.

Adrian had refused every order.

At the time...

Almost everyone believed he had lost his mind.

Then...

Everything changed.

The Crimson Abyss Sect fell.

Victor rose to prominence.

The Salvatore Family astonished the entire empire.

And suddenly...

Those same elders who had criticized Adrian now wished to repair the relationship.

Life truly was unpredictable.

One elderly man coughed awkwardly.

”Adrian...”

”This truly isn’t the time for jokes.”

Another elder nodded.

”The situation has become far more serious than any of us anticipated.”

At that moment...

The Pavilion Master finally spoke.

His voice was calm.

Yet every word carried tremendous weight.

”You know the Celestial Fate Pavilion serves as the national faith of the Celestial Dawn EMPIRE.”

He slowly rose from his seat.

His expression was more solemn than Adrian had ever seen.

”But now...”

”...the very title of the Empire itself hangs by a thread.”

The entire hall became deathly silent.

Even Adrian’s smile gradually disappeared.

The Pavilion Master’s eyes slowly lifted toward the distant heavens.

”If something goes wrong this time...”

”...the title ’Empire’ may disappear forever.”

”The Celestial Dawn EMPIRE itself...”

”...may cease to exist.”

The weight behind those words made even the surrounding air seem colder.

A profound silence settled over the grand hall.

For the first time...

Even Adrian realized...

Something capable of shaking the fate of the entire empire...

Was about to begin.

Upon hearing those words, Adrian Valerius’ carefree expression gradually faded.

The playful smile that usually hung on his lips disappeared, replaced by a rare look of solemnity.

The atmosphere inside the grand hall grew noticeably heavier.

”...What’s going on?” Adrian finally asked.

”I’ll explain.”

A crisp, melodious voice interrupted the silence.

Everyone instinctively turned toward the entrance.

Graceful footsteps echoed across the polished stone floor.

A breathtaking young woman slowly entered the hall.

Her long silver hair flowed like moonlight, reaching almost to her waist. A pair of ruby-red eyes held both royal dignity and quiet wisdom. Every movement she made carried the elegance expected of imperial blood.

She wore an exquisite silver-and-crimson imperial robe embroidered with soaring dragons and blazing phoenixes. Golden ornaments rested lightly upon her hair, while a jade pendant at her waist chimed softly with every step.

It was none other than Princess Jessica Dawn of the Celestial Dawn EMPIRE.

”Your Highness!”
