As he spoke, more and more grains of salt began to fall.
"It seems the collapse is faster than I thought. Follow me and walk this way."
The salt sculpture was explained, but Zhongli did not continue to elaborate.
…
The dark underground, with salt grains falling from time to time, and strange humanoid statues, is a bit scary, like a supernatural place.
However, under the leadership of Zhongli, after crossing a broken and collapsed rock wall, they came to a relatively intact room.
The room is not big, and there are no salt sculptures outside. There is only a prescription table with a jar-like thing placed on it.
"This is a salt lamp. It is also a thing left by the Demon God of Salt. It is also what you want, Xianyu, right?"
Silently walked up and took the things down.
"What I want is indeed an item related to the power of the devil's authority. Sir, what you expected is good, so I will do it without any hesitation."
"Haha, it doesn't matter, I'm not interested in these antiquities, and you deserve this."
After Zhongli finished speaking, he looked at Kong: "Traveller, is there anything you want from this ruins?"
He shook his head: "No, I just wanted to come over and have a look. I didn't think much about anything else."
"And it's just a salt cup."
Xianyu put the things away.
"You are wrong, Kong. Although this thing seems to be just an ordinary item, it contains the power of the devil, which is that it can pour out endless salt."
Hearing the word "endless", Sora was still not very moved, but Paimon's eyes were filled with "mora".
"Then what you say, Xianyu, if we take this salt cup out and sell it in bags worth tens of millions, wouldn't we make a fortune?"
Paimon is right, anyone who has some business acumen and wants to make a fortune will have this idea.
"It seems that you know more about the Demon God of Salt than I thought. You even know the ability of this salt cup, so you are well prepared."
Ignore Paimon for the time being.
"I don't know what the Demon God of Salt is like, but I have put a lot of effort into it, so I know some things."
Then he looked at Kong and the others: "Kong, if you want mola, this salt cup will be available for you to use for a period of time. I think you will gain a lot of mola."
Talking about "cheating" to earn Morax in front of Morax made Kong feel a little embarrassed.
It's hard for Sora to open his mouth, and Paimon, a little money addict, is here.
"Okay, okay, then you will get half of the money we earn!"
Kong was embarrassed, but Xianyu didn't take it into consideration.
"Moura...I don't have any shortage for now, you can just do it yourself."
Absorbing power is not something urgent. As long as you have something in hand, you can do it at any time.
Paimon was still counting on his fingers, while Zhongli and Xianyu were already walking deeper.
The second room is similar to the room where the salt lamps are placed.
It's just that the item here is not a salt cup, but a measuring stick.
Without saying anything more, Xian Yu also put it away. This time he didn't even need to explain his power.
Anyway, it's all related to salt. Sora can guess that it's probably another salt-making thing.
"As for Heulia's still powerful objects, there are only these two, and the others are not so magical."
"If you want to continue to understand this demon god in depth, I can also take you there. How about it, everyone?"
Zhong Li's words are more about asking questions, because Xian Yu's goal has been achieved, and it doesn't matter whether he goes or not.
Thinking of the salted people when he came, Kong was silent for a while, and then spoke.
"Well, I want to continue. I also want to know more about this kind-hearted demon and see her final resting place."
Even if Sora wants to continue, the journey will not end.
"Okay, in that case, I'll reinforce this place first."
As a rock god, it is a very simple matter to stabilize the rock wall above this underground city.
Although he has lost his divine heart in his incarnation as Zhongli, it does not mean that he cannot use his divine power.
The golden light condensed, a ray of light shot upward, and he shouted softly: "The rock is solid!"
The rocks that were originally salted returned to their original shape and continued to extend, and those salt grains naturally stopped falling.
"Okay, we can move forward with peace of mind now."
"No need to look at me with that strange look, it's just for convenience."
Xian Yu didn't pay much attention to this statement. Whether the city collapsed or remained, it didn't mean much to him.
Since Zhongli did this, he should have taken it into consideration.
Maybe, he might come again in the future.
…
There will be a total of four rooms.
It's not that there are only four rooms in this ruins, but the things in these rooms have a great relationship with Heulia.
The first two items had been put away by Xian Yu, and in the third room, there was a broken sword.
The weapon that killed Heulia.
"This broken sword is the weapon used to kill the Salt Demon God. Originally, this sword would not have appeared here.
It's just that the person who escaped was afraid of being cursed by the devil, so he broke it and used it as an offering to appease her resentment."
"It's just Heulia who didn't even resist from beginning to end. How could she resent her people..."
Zhongli was still explaining to Kong and the others.
Xian Yu didn't know what Kong was thinking, but if he was asked to evaluate this demon, Xian Yu could only say "silly".
Maybe she has her own ideas and they are great, but it is difficult for her to agree with them.
All tragedies ultimately stem from one's own weakness.
Her death is a warning, not only to the former Morax, but also to the current Xianyu.
"The past will eventually become the dust of history. All I can do is move forward fearlessly."
He looked at the broken sword and said nothing for a long time.
"Xian Yu? Do you want this sword? I heard from Zhongli that it is just an ordinary sword and has no other function."
Being called back from his thoughts by Paimeng, Xian Yu said calmly: "No, I don't need this sword, I'm just thinking about something."
"What, are you going to the next place?"
Paimon nodded his little head: "Yes, Zhongli said he would take us to the last place, where the good demon god collapsed."
"Feeling something?" Zhong Li looked at Xian Yu.
"Yes, the death of this demon god made me understand and feel a lot. It is a very important warning."
Xian Yu's return was expected by Zhong Li. Looking at what the other party was looking for, he knew his motives.
"It's a good idea, but don't lose yourself for the sake of power. In that case, the gains outweigh the losses."
That's right, but Xianyu himself has a bottom line in his heart. He has his own considerations about what he can and cannot do.
"Been taught a lesson."
…
In the last room, except for the salted statue, there was nothing, just a pool of salt grains.
And that is what Heulia left behind after her death.
"This is the last room, where Heulia's body collapsed."
