Chapter 56: The Prosperity of the Salvatore Family
The Prosperity of the Salvatore Family
Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.
After Victor personally completed the Celestial Spirit Convergence Grand Formation, the entire Salvatore Family estate seemed to awaken.
Beneath the earth, vast streams of Spiritual Energy flowed like hidden rivers before gathering toward the heart of the estate. The once ordinary air became rich and vibrant, carrying a refreshing vitality that made every breath feel invigorating. At dawn, delicate strands of pale spiritual mist drifted lazily through the courtyards, wrapping ancient buildings and stone paths in an ethereal glow. Even the surrounding mountains appeared transformed, their forests growing noticeably greener with each passing day, as though nature itself had begun responding to the formation’s influence.
Anyone stepping into the estate could immediately sense that something extraordinary had happened.
Even those without any cultivation could feel an indescribable comfort settling over their bodies. The air was lighter, the surroundings quieter, and an invisible warmth seemed to embrace every corner of the family grounds.
To cultivators, however, the difference was nothing short of miraculous.
The moment they began circulating their cultivation techniques, they discovered that Spiritual Energy poured into their bodies with unprecedented ease. It no longer felt like painstakingly drawing water from a distant well. Instead, it was as though the heavens themselves had opened their gates, allowing endless Spiritual Energy to flow naturally into their meridians.
Many disciples found themselves frozen in disbelief.
Cultivation bottlenecks that had trapped them for months—even years—began to crumble one after another.
Techniques they had repeatedly failed to comprehend suddenly became crystal clear. Passages that once seemed mysterious now unfolded naturally within their minds, each insight connecting effortlessly to the next. It was as if an invisible master stood quietly beside them, gently pointing them toward the correct path whenever confusion arose.
Excited laughter and astonished cries echoed throughout the estate almost every day.
One disciple would break through in the morning.
Another would advance before sunset.
Soon afterward, yet another breakthrough would shake a nearby courtyard, filling the air with surging Spiritual Energy.
The elders quickly stopped expressing surprise.
Instead, they began smiling whenever another surge erupted somewhere within the estate, as though such miracles had already become an ordinary part of daily life.
The younger generation experienced even greater changes.
After tempering their bodies inside the Primordial Blood Refining Cauldron, every child underwent a remarkable transformation.
Their physiques became stronger.
Their bones grew denser and more resilient.
Their meridians widened considerably, allowing Spiritual Energy to circulate with far greater efficiency, while layers of hidden impurities were gradually forced out of their bodies through the refinement process.
Children who had once struggled to cultivate now discovered that absorbing Spiritual Energy felt effortless.
Some who had previously been dismissed as possessing only average talent suddenly displayed astonishing aptitude that exceeded everyone’s expectations.
Even the instructors found themselves speechless as they watched these dramatic improvements unfold.
It was becoming increasingly clear that the Salvatore Family was no longer the same family it had been only a week ago.
It was quietly transforming into a place where extraordinary cultivators would one day be born.
Meanwhile...
The Eternal Heavenly Rune Codex remained as mysterious as ever.
Although countless members of the Salvatore Family respectfully visited it every day, no one had yet managed to uncover the true secrets hidden within the ancient artifact.
It simply floated quietly inside the Ancestral Hall.
Wordless.
Silent.
Waiting for the person truly destined to awaken it.
At the same time, the effects of Victor’s heaven-cleaving sword continued spreading throughout the family.
After the strike of the Heavenbreaker Eternal Sword Canon, the rain of Sword Intent had planted more than a dozen Sword Principle Seeds within the younger generation.
Those disciples displayed astonishing growth.
Whether practicing sword techniques or comprehending martial arts, they progressed at astonishing speed.
Every one of them possessed extraordinary combat talent.
Every one of them awakened Blue-grade Destiny.
Watching the family’s rapid development, Victor gradually reached another conclusion.
As the Salvatore Family continued growing stronger...
The number of clan members capable of triggering Legacy Investment rewards would naturally continue increasing.
That realization gave him a new idea.
He couldn’t personally oversee every Blue-grade Destiny member forever.
Nor was it necessary.
Most investments involving Purple-grade Destiny and below required only common cultivation resources—medicinal pills, cultivation scriptures, treasure artifacts, weapons, and similar items.
There was no reason to handle every matter himself.
After several days of careful consideration, Victor established a complete contribution and reward system for the entire Salvatore Family.
Every member would be included.
Disciples with greater talent naturally possessed greater potential.
They would receive more difficult missions, greater opportunities, and correspondingly higher rewards.
Ordinary disciples, however, would never be neglected.
As long as they contributed to the family, they too would receive cultivation resources according to their achievements.
The rules were simple.
Fair.
Transparent.
Most importantly...
Everyone benefited.
Whenever a member of the Salvatore Family became stronger, Victor himself also received benefits through the Eternal Legacy System.
No matter how he looked at it...
It was a completely worthwhile arrangement.
Over the following days, system notifications almost never stopped.
One reward followed another.
Victor’s storage space rapidly filled with priceless treasures.
Rare medicinal pills accumulated into mountains.
Precious cultivation resources piled up one after another.
Treasure artifacts that countless cultivators outside would willingly risk their lives to obtain now rested quietly inside his inventory.
More than several dozen Earth-grade treasures.
Hundreds of Profound-grade treasures.
Countless medicinal pills.
Various cultivation scriptures.
An enormous collection of spiritual materials.
Every passing day added still more.
Without realizing it, the Salvatore Family had completely cast aside its former image of weakness.
Every disciple cultivated with confidence.
Every elder radiated renewed vitality.
The family’s strength increased almost visibly with each sunrise.
There were now more than one hundred cultivators at the Arcane Meridian Realm.
Ten experts had successfully entered the Celestial Gate Realm.
As for cultivators within the Spiritual Awakening Realm and Mortal Forging Realm, they had become too numerous to count.
Max Salvatore had also reached the peak of the Celestial Gate Realm.
Only a single step remained before entering the Heavenly Genesis Realm.
His cultivation advanced steadily with every passing day, and even Victor quietly acknowledged his remarkable progress.
The current Salvatore Family no longer needed to prove its strength to anyone.
Its reputation alone was enough to inspire respect throughout the surrounding region.
And at the center of that transformation...
Stood one man.
Victor.
Dressed in his familiar black robe embroidered with golden dragons, his long black hair gently swayed in the breeze as his calm golden eyes overlooked the steadily flourishing family.
Everything was progressing exactly as he had envisioned.
And yet...
Victor knew this was only the beginning.
