Sam stayed in the ice fields for a week, but by the end of the week, there is nothing in the vicinity that made it look like the ice field. At least within the radius of thirty kilometers around the city, nothing is frozen.
Even the ice on the mountains is melting down and joined the streams. The surrounding forests are flooded a bit, but as soon as the ice didn't melt at the same time and happened gradually most of it just flowed gradually into the ice fields outside the range.
As for the city, everyone was stunned by what Sam did with the tower.
He modified a lot of it and even though it didn't look much different externally, a lot of changes occurred and the largest eye-catching thing is the ball of glowing flames condensed together a few meters above the top of the tower.
It looked like a sun and in fact, it is indeed an artificial sun Sam made for this area and that is the reason why the thirty-kilometer radius was completely affected and was rid of ice.
The artificial sun was created with the gases of the highly volatile gases of the fuels with high calorific value distilled within the tower.
The heat energy from the fuels with medium calorific value was used to heat up the immediate vicinities of the city while the lower level fuels were diverted to a tank for the usage of the citizens.
After finishing off the project, the citizens were shocked and were in awe.
Sam decided to leave the place even before he could come out of that shock. He left with the team.
But before his departure, he pissed of Hel once more before destroying her statue inside the new divine dimension full of ice elemental energy. It is kind of ironic how Hel who is master of the dark flames managed to subdue a sect based on the ice elemental energy, but he didn't care too much and prepared for the next journey.
"Now, all the troublesome targets of the second twelve are over, the remaining are easy for us. So, just pick whatever target you want to choose. We will select them directly without any trouble and face them head-on. This way you can also have your combat training down."
Sam said as he looked at his team.
The most troubling candidates in the second twelve of the third phase are over.
They just need to finish the remaining targets and move on to the third phase.
These targets might take some time, but they wouldn't pose any serious threats.
So, he left the freedom for his teammates and let them select who they should face next and how they should proceed.
Sam planned out the next eight months for both dealing with the targets as well as the expansion of the dusk organization.
It has been too long since the dusk organization expanded in recent years and they are completely stable at the moment.
And since Sam also got some serious manpower waiting to be utilized inside the chessboard, there is no need for him to worry too much.
So, while he left the team to decide on the targets, he went back to desolate to organize the next expansion plan and along with the expansion in terms of places and business, Sam also made sure that they expanded the schools as well.
The first batches of schools are already showing the results.
Sam now has hundreds of Pre-transcendent and transcendent stage cultivators who graduated from various schools. Most of them are sent to the higher realms to develop further and some of them even joined the college in the Charbhum realm.
Even the school he opened in the Charbhum realm is actually a great place that showed enormous results, currently, in the elven government of the Charbhum realm, Sam has one of the greatest influences as the students of his school joined as bureaucrats and climbed ranks like crazy.
These results cannot be ignored.
Sam needs a proper network to make sure that the school is stable. As long as he is alive and can still roam around the realms, it is all okay. But there would come a time where he might not be able to take care of everything and he would need some stable and loyal people who don't lust after the power that is the organization.
Even if there are some weeds that try to take over the organization, there should be someone in secret whose duty is to deal with these weeds.
So, Sam also wanted to take in some students.
They are not like his direct disciples who would follow in his footsteps. Rather he is going to be their temporary instructor and a mentor.
He also gave some requirements to some of the loyal executives to scout for such people in the already existing realms.
His main target is the people with utmost dedication and also nothing to lose. And he is not going to take them as his students directly. He is going to test them, they will go through one of the worst phases of life and the cruelest training this world could ever see.
But he is sure as hell going to make them go through it and make some tough nuts to crack out of that training program.
He also let out some of the people on the chessboard who are completely tamed and made soul contracts with him to supervise the expansion.
They are going to take care of the new branches and they will support the education division in his organization to establish the new schools.
While Sam is making big plans for his own organization, he doesn't know the butterfly effect he caused by destroying the Tundra Sect and the modification of the tower.
Far away from the Ice plains, in a planet that is solely dedicated for a sect.
A sect that was spread among different places ruled by the different branches of the sect.
There is one icy mountain range on which the headquarters are located and currently they are conducting a meeting.
An old man with a muscular body stood bare in that ice castle's main hall with a bunch of elders sitting on either side.
"Two of the lower branches are destroyed. What is happening?"
The old man asked an elder who stood up.
The elder was nervous a bit and said.
"The stone temple is destroyed, the investigators already went there, but still didn't come back. Right when they are returning, the Tundra sect was also destroyed.
So, I sent a messenger to them to go there and investigate."
"Why, what is the rest of the investigative department doing?"
"They are too far away."
"Is that reason enough?"
"Sir, the other branches are trying their best to usurp power. Particularly the earthen branch. Since the stone temple is under their control, they are trying to pin some blame on us. They are deliberately suppressing the investigative branch. The more they delay the stone temple's situation, the more they would be able to pin this blame on us for incompetence."
The old man looked at the elder and said.
"Do I need to remind you guys? No matter how many branches we have and which god each branch worships, there is one thing they all have to follow. The ruling branch rules and makes the rules. The investigative department is under us, even if they have more earthen branch members joining in and even if the fire branch members mix in it.
Go and order the investigative department that they need to finish the investigation in four days. I don't care what methods they would use, but I want that to happen.
And the tundra sect has one of the divine dimensions with them. Make sure to find that out."
"Yes sir."
After the Elder left, the old man looked at the rest of the elders and said.
"It seems like the other branches are forgetting why we are the ruling branch. Go and show them."
With that, the meeting was dispersed.
"I want to know who is daring enough to trash two of my branches. I will find you and deal with you no matter what." He muttered to himself.
And that is not the only reaction Sam invoked.
In another realm, on an island, there is a tower in which three men are currently having dinner.
One of them has long hair braided and a lean build. The second one has blonde hair which was tied into a ponytail and the third one has silver hair which is short and spiky.
As the three of them speaking, the silver-haired guy suddenly said.
"The spirit I left in the tower in that ice plains is destroyed yesterday."
The remaining two stopped clearly showing their stunned expressions.
"What do you mean was destroyed?"
"I don't know what happened, I already sent someone to get the details, they would be here in a week. By the way, I also asked them to check about the maze and the mountain on their way. So get ready to see if something happened to our creations. If there is anyone with brains in the lower realms."
"I already lost hopes." The blonde guy said and they continued eating.
