The Legend of the Eternal King
Salt is Salty

Dusk has come, soon night will come.

Lei Teng rowed the boat slowly away from the coast. Mao Yu looked busy with putting up some flashy bright lanterns. He hoped that by installing it on each side of the boat, he could be easily found.

“Ehm... Mao Yu, what about those crystal salts?’ Lei Teng was still awkward. He hesitated to ask.

“Let in the kitchen.” Mao Yu was still busy arranging the lanterns.

God, is it true that the main crystal salt will be used in cooking? We can explode into dust if we actually eat it.

Our bodies are unable to bear the immense power contained within.

“Do you doubt that salt is not edible? Fear of poison ?” Mao Yu looked at Lei Teng's expression slightly scared, worried and full of doubt.

“Try to give me a hunk...” Mao Yu extended her hand.

Lei Teng gave a hunk of the main crystal salt. Seeing Mao Yu's movements, Lei Teng glared sharply. Is this kid gonna eat it?

Even before Lei Teng was about to shout warning, Mao Yu had licked one side of the main crystal salt.

“Bleehhhhh.

Mao Yu coughed then spat. He tried to drain his mouth cavity which was attacked by an overwhelming salty taste.

Lei Teng “ ... “

Lei Teng was surprised by the stiff facial muscles as well as the wide gaping mouth. Seeing Mao Yu was still fine.

But his surprise had not even received a response. Lei Teng suddenly felt a tremendous panic, cold sweat began to pour out from the pore of each part of his body.

He saw Mao Yu staring at the salt in the hand with a high sense of hostility and resentment.

“How can this salt have a salty taste with a very concentrated level. My tongue went numb..”

Plunggs.... Mao Yu threw the salt into the lake. Causes a celeb sound with a little splash of water.

Lei Teng “ ...  “

Lei Teng roared violently. Even a lump of salt made a mortal a mortal into an immortal. The chance of someone treading the immortal path became lost when a hunk had been thrown to the bottom of the lake.

INNNN IIINNNNNNIIIIIIIIII............

Lei Teng was still inflamed violently. He saw with his own eyes. The chance of someone becoming immortal just disappeared.

“Lei Teng where the salts. It feels too sharp and turns off the tongue.” Mao Yu frowned, she still felt a sense of unease on her tongue.

“Moreover solutions on unused items? I'm definitely going to throw it in the lake. Yes I wastes.” Mao Yu snorted.

“Mao Yu !!!! No, MISTER !!!” Lei Teng shouted out loudly.

“WHISPER !!! Just surprise me !!! Why do people around me like to yell!!!” Mao Yu also shouted.

Lei Teng with all his inner strength tried to calm down. It would be a great sin if he watched the 63 major crystal salt boulders sink back to the bottom of the lake.

Imagining having lost a chunk almost makes the headache cause all the hair to fall out. For whatever sake he had to protect the salt that was still in his storage.

As an experienced veteran he must have been faced with the most difficult circumstances. He this time was forced in the shortest time possible to have to find a telling solution.

Honestly, this incident before his eyes was the toughest thing during the age he had lived.

“I am a gold-class alchemist. This salt has a very high mineral content again nutritious high. I could easily separate the exaggerated elements within. For the sake of purifying this salt to taste even more sublime.” Lei Teng narrowed his eyes. His words were very bragging.

Of course he can't actually do anything to the salt.

“I agree then, reasonable suggestion.” Mao Yu unleashed a grudge to throw all the salt into the lake.

Yess !!! that was how in Lei Teng's heart wanted to cheer. Her face was now as freshly bloomed as a sunflower.

“My lord, may I ask for a hunk of it for myself?” Lei Teng ventured to bring out the science of super-lickers. His gaze was extremely vigilant, this question would determine his future.

“When you become so. Salt problem, take as you like. If you throw the barrel again to the bottom of the lake. Even you can sell salt to the city of transit, at least this sect will get more money than just selling the remaining salt distillates.” Mao Yu snorted.

Lei Teng “ ... “

For what sake is only a barrel thrown we are able to draw 64 main crystal salt chunks from the silver lake. If the elders of the Silver Lion sect at that time witnessed that the main crystal salt was harvested just by lifting the barrel they would definitely be sick.

Sold to a transit town? Even a mega-power large by draining the entire treasure warehouse, was not enough to pay for a major lump of crystal salt.

It was not a matter of how much it cost, just how much would it cost to buy an immortal? Is immortality like a commercial item on the market?

Lei Teng rowed the boat towards the area more central of the lake with tears. He got the main treasure. A fortune that would change his cultivation path.

In the future it had been assured that the name Lei Teng would be recorded as an immortal alchemist throughout the world. The Immortal Achemist Violet Monarch.

As a wandering cultivator without a master, a sect nor bound to a clan. He now felt his heart tethered to the Silver Lion sect. However, he understands very well what is gratitude and remuneration.

Inwardly he was determined to be in the Silver Lion sect forever.
