The replicated pirate was a Wu Zun from the Tide Realm. His strength was considered average, being a Level 3 Wu Zun.
Lin Yun frowned. If this was the Western Continent, Lin Yun might be able to find an opportunity to start a war with the replicated pirate and snatch the Steel Sea God Beast.
However, this was the Eastern Continent after all. The Celestial realm and the Tide Realm were both here, not to mention that he was currently in the Tide Realm's territory.
If he were to make a move here, he might end up in a dead end if he wasn't careful.
"Where is this replicated pirate now?" Lin Yun asked in a low voice.
Even if he didn't have much of a chance to snatch the Steel Sea God Beast, Lin Yun still wanted to give it a try. After all, the Eight Desolations Six Directions Divine Art was known as the strongest cultivation technique in the Three Realms.
Moreover, according to Lin Yun's current understanding, only the Steel Sea God Beast had a metal-element core crystal in the entire God Realm.
No matter what, Lin Yun wanted to fight for it as long as he didn't expose his identity.
The city lord was stunned, then shook his head and smiled bitterly. "My Lord, I'm just a small city lord. How would I know such things?"
"I've told you everything you want to know. Please let me go!"
With Lin Yun's personality, would he let the City Lord go?
The answer was naturally no.
Lin Yun burned down the city lord's mansion, and this Wu Huang level city lord died tragically under the raging flames, burned into a pile of charcoal.
Without a doubt, with Lin Yun's strength, he could easily kill this city lord. However, if he did so, it would definitely attract the attention of the Tide Realm.
If he was burned to death, the Tide Realm would fluctuate between accident and murder. Although they would be suspicious, they wouldn't take it to heart.
"Fire!"
As soon as Lin Yun left the city lord's mansion and disappeared into the darkness, a large number of Sky Zither City soldiers rushed over from all directions.
However, when they extinguished the fire, what they saw was the City Lord who had lost all signs of life.
Right now, Lin Yun had already arrived outside the city gate. After all, it was already so late. If he went to stay for the night, it would arouse the suspicion of others. He planned to enter the city tomorrow to see if he could get any useful information.
Since the Steel Sea God Beast was in the hands of the pirate clone, Lin Yun only needed to investigate the pirate clone.
At noon the next day, the sound of gongs and drums shook the heavens. The previous City Lord had just been burned to death, and the Tide Realm had already arranged for another City Lord to take over. They had also sent specialists to investigate the fire from last night.
The person who'd come to investigate was Wu Sheng from the Tide Realm. However, he hadn't noticed anything suspicious during his investigation.
This was because there were no wounds on the corpse of the previous City Lord, nor were there any signs of imprisonment.
In the end, this Wu Sheng also left with his men, preparing to report the results to the higher-ups of the Tide Realm.
When night fell, Lin Yun swaggered into the city and found the largest restaurant in Sky Zither City to settle down for a meal.
This was because restaurants like this had many customers, and it was possible to unintentionally obtain a lot of useful information.
While eating, Lin Yun heard some of the people at the neighboring table discussing the fire from last night.
"Last night seemed to be an accident. After the Lord from the Tide Realm came here, he didn't find any signs of human activity."
"That's true. I heard that when the City Lord died, he didn't have any injuries on his body. Perhaps it was just an accident."
"The Tide Realm is also quite concerned about this matter. After all, their relationship with the Senluo Realm is very tense, and they're very worried that this was done by someone from the Senluo Realm."
The people at the neighboring table drank and talked about last night's events, and they were all very animated.
However, Lin Yun also captured a few useful pieces of information.
First, the battle between the Senluo Realm and the Tide Realm was very intense. Between the four sacred lands, the Netherworld and the Celestial realm, there were frequent wars.
This region was on the border of the Tide Realm, so the Senluo Realm wanted to plunder some resources here.
Second, there seemed to be a war between the Senluo Realm and the Tide Realm in the near future.
After careful consideration, Lin Yun still didn't plan to leave the Eastern Continent. After all, this was a rare opportunity to fight for the Metal Core Crystal.
Moreover, the pirate clone was a rank 3 Wu Zun. With Lin Yun's current strength, if he activated the fifth form of the Demon God Core Crystal, he would definitely have the strength to fight him.
Just like that, Lin Yun chose to stay in Sky Zither City. He appeared in this restaurant every day, listening to the wandering cultivators from all over the world talk about the Eastern Continent.
During this month, as the wandering cultivators said, the Tide Realm and the Senluo Realm fought for resources, which led to several small-scale battles. However, the higher-ups of both forces didn't participate.
In the blink of an eye, two months passed, including Lin Yun, who lived in Sky Zither City for two months.
During these two months, the Divine Realm had a rare period of peace.
After all, after the great war, whether it was the Celestial realm, the Netherworld, or the Sacred Alliance, they all suffered heavy losses.
With such losses, it was not possible to return to their peak in just a few months.
As strong as the Samsara Heavenly Emperor was, he only needed one second to travel from the Eastern Continent to the Western Continent.
However, he didn't dare to attack the Sacred Alliance at this time.
After the great war, everyone clearly understood how terrifying Emperor Wu's realm was.
Even though the Samsara Heavenly Emperor was known as the strongest man in the Three Realms, it wasn't easy to kill the Yellow Emperor in a one-on-one fight.
If he personally went to the Holy Mountain Range and led the army again, the Celestial realm's headquarters would probably be mercilessly attacked by the Netherworld and the Fallen Heavens Army.
Regardless of which faction it was, all of them understood this. Thus, during this period of time, they all chose to endure silently without prior consultation.
As for the existence of the tomb, it was becoming more and more apparent. Everyone was trying to guess exactly what this mysterious organization had been established for.
Apart from that, there was another force in the Three Realms that people were curious about — the Tu Shenzong.
"It's been a few months, but I heard that the major forces still haven't given up on the search for Tu Shenzong."
"A man's wealth is his own ruin. Although the Sect Master of Tu Shenzong, Lin Yun, has a monstrous performance, don't forget that the major forces are jealous of the Demon Palace Guards that they control. "
"This Lin Yun is also not an ordinary person. I even suspect that they are no longer in the Divine Realm."
