Days passed slowly with the people on the top of the world full of tension and the common people without a single ounce of knowledge of these tensions.

Sam came back to the city and became busy in his own preparations for the future.

While Philip and Sirona are planning their own things. Arkiv is still in the Usaine sect.

Everyone is immersed in their own tasks and Sam has left the task of recruiting the personnel from the remaining empires of the Usaine sect to Arkiv and Austin.

Arkiv finished this task and went back to the sect.

Coincidentally after their activities are over, the first serious and significant battle between the Usaine sect and the three associations took place in the central continent grounds.

To everyone's surprise, although Usaine sect is the one responsible for the first blow after the war started, this attack was launched by the associations and the troops are formed by the combined soldiers from the three associations.

This battle took place in one of the resource providers of the Usaine sect. It is a mine that provides a type of metal that is mostly used for making formation discs and formation flags.

This is a significant resource point in the war considering the production activities will increase as both sides are proficient in the formation making.

In the war and after the war, this place is of high value for both parties.

Even though the associations wanted to launch a completely surprising attack, the sect members reacted fast enough to avoid a massacre.

And the battle became a nasty dog fight for all the cultivators to tear each other apart.

The battle involved more than three thousand cultivators from both sides combined and this led to the continuous chain reactions of revenge attacks and schemes, ambushes, and sneak attacks on camps.

Any region belonging to both the territories in the central continent is in chaos.

And the middle of this chaos a troop of artisan association appeared out of nowhere in one of the islands of the Usaine sect and took over silently. There the Usaine sect suffered a severe loss. A loss so bad that not a single soldier survived to even carry the news back.

Even the activities of the people went without any obstructions. Nobody knew who took over the island, but they did quite a number on that.

This place is one of the islands with active volcanoes and the artisans of the Usaine sect used this place for their weapon production as the fire control and recovery, even assistance from the lava of the volcanoes is extremely beneficial for them.

But now it is gone.

By the time, the Usaine learned about this, they surprisingly lost the first resource point too.

To everyone's surprise, the Usaine sect lost the first two big battles in the war.

No one, even Sam didn't expect this.

Then only he understood that the associations are stronger than he imagined. He was now thinking about whether he should get involved in the war or not.

While he is contemplating like that, some other news popped out and that is three small islands near the central continent which are the beast farms of the Inscription association were captured by the Usaine sect and the two mines of the artisan association are captured.

Not only that, the next day another news came out and that is when the three associations wanted to capture another mine of the Usaine sect, they fell into a trap and more than half of their troops in their regions are done for.

Apart from that, troops of the formation association and Usaine sect engaged in naval warfare.

All of this is happening because both Usaine sect and the three associations are too close to each other.

Sam really wanted to pull the strings and make it more chaotic; he is extremely tempted to do so. But he has to wait because there would be some form of trouble after this war is over and he is waiting for that. This could happen in the next two months by the end of the year and that is the war being stopped in the middle and the Usaine sect possibly aiming at Sam after realizing their stupidity due to the blood-shed.

If that doesn't happen, he has other plans. He took out some more blueprints and gave them to the production team.

There are new types of ships and one of them is a major project they are going to do. For that eighty percent of the production team is going to work and even the students from various departments could take part it in and most of the work is going to be done outside because it is definitely a multiple-person project, not a single-person project.

Except for the parts that could be manufactured on his production unit, everything is going to be made by others.

This is going to be a full-fledged naval fleet. Except for the aircraft carrier and the submarines, everything will be there and there is some kind of formational combinations in it.

When designing the first ship, Sam got more problems in designing the moving mechanism. It would use the water jets controlled by the water element users to move. And there are backup engines too which are actually steam engines.

The ship would definitely work with the steam engines but it wouldn't be as fast.

Now that the motion of the ship is completed and the backup engine design is also done, Sam doesn't need to worry about the rest.

He could use the same mechanism with slight modifications to the remaining ships.

When the Production members and artisans saw the designs, they are stunned. They didn't expect there would be this much work and this much of complicated work.

But they were even more stunned when Sam said that most outstanding of all the workers will be selected and trained in specific Marine style weapons, vehicles, and other kinds of engineering stuff. Sam promised to give them a thorough course on how to approach these.

And thus the manufacturing began in the eastern sea of the western continent.

From the map of the world, there is actually a possible sea route to the Usaine sect from this place, but it would be almost impossible to bypass this sea with the strong beast unless a Consummate realm expert helps them.

While they are at it, Sam went to the tempest valley to bring back one of his beast uncles.

He brought him in the Divine dimension and went to the western sea.

It is about time he expanded his troops beyond the human army. Although, there are some preparations going on towards the beast army it was only for land. Now he is going to recruit the beast army of the waters and after two weeks, the three cities of the southern star which were being infested by the Porpoises in their sea waters were freed from their troubles.

The porpoises disappeared.

After two months, Sam realized that his trouble is not coming as he expected. The war escalated to new heights as people died one after another on the battlefield.

It seemed that only one party is going to survive and that will be heavily damaged.

He kept up with the news from time to time and focused on the manufacturing and at the same time, the new formation technique he saw on the meteorite island.

One was complete production activity and the other one is the research with complete brain activity.

The ships are being assembled a day in and day out and the ships are being manufactured simultaneously.

This is going to be one of Sam's masterpieces to date.

The fleet is going to be having five amphibious assault ships as the center of the formation and have a total of fifty corvettes, forty frigates, forty destroyers, thirty cruisers with a total of one hundred and sixty ships in a single fleet.

The work is going on with around a thousand artisans in place. Even the new artisans are allowed to work.

Sam decided to increase the speed of the work because his anticipated attack didn't come and he would have to prepare to attack himself after the war was over. And that too, he has to move fast enough before the other major powers make the move.

He has to destroy the Usaine sect with his own hands. Otherwise, it would be a waste of all this effort.

He ignited this war with so much effort. It took so many people and so much planning and execution.

What he doesn't know is all the major power heads are also waiting in the same way.

They knew what is happening and there are some shady things going on which are being led by some major powers and the war is being escalated by them.

What should have been a minor scuffle has been dragged to this point. The major powers completely stopped the employees who took positions in the tower to assist the three associations which led to the deficit of the troops and the damages of the associations to be increased greatly.

Slowly, six months passed since the war started and four months passed in the second year.

In this time, Sam made many things. He sent some mercenaries to the remaining empire under the thunder god temple and it is almost subdued. It is almost as good as done.

At the same time, Sirona and Philip are wreaking havoc in the Usaine sect empires. They robbed a lot. In fact, a little too much than Sam thought. Except for the Eastern continent, which is relatively independent of the Usaine sect, all the other empires are almost stripped out of their resources. Sam achieved a breakthrough to the nascent stage level five.

Finally, his speed is slowing down for others to look at. But he slowed his cultivation down because the Nascent stage is somewhat important. He started refining his body and spirit so that he can have a greater foundation for the next stages.

Even though he is a middle stage Nascent, the combat power is extremely high due to constant suppression. He decided that he would only breakthrough to the next stage after another year.

And the next one would take even more than one year. This way, he might fall behind others but he would have some great results in the future stages.

He realized this later only after he broke through to the fourth level.

Anyway, the war finally came to its final stages and the news is that the Consummates already had some skirmishes and they are going to have their final battle soon.

Sam decided that he should make his move at this moment. Because Arc, his strongest subordinate had already broken through the Consummate stage the last month and he even brought one of his beast uncles with him just in case.

Along with that, he has the guardian of the meteorite island's stone pillar, the hairs of the monkey king, and his Naval fleet.

He is ready to tackle a Major power. But before that, he has to find a suitable base from where he could deploy these troops in a disguise and he had a perfect place in mind.
