The salt crystal shield naturally couldn't block his greatsword.

Large pieces of salt crystals collapsed and splashed everywhere.

However, Wang Que also took the opportunity to quickly dodge Chongyun's sword.

It seemed like he had forced Wang Que to retreat.

But Chongyun soon discovered something was wrong.

The ice attached to the blade's edge strangely granulated and peeled off, turning into crystal salt grains that drifted away in the wind.

"His power is corrosive."

Beside him, Xingqiu had already gotten rid of the salt element's infection and spoke up to remind him.

Chongyun was shocked and suddenly felt the weight of the weapon in his hand suddenly decreased. The originally sharp black iron sword was covered with corrosion marks as if it had been soaked in salt water for a hundred years.

"Oh, it's my turn."

It turned out that Wang Que suddenly rushed forward and pointed a finger at the sword. The salt-white lines climbed up Chongyun's sword along his fingertips.

But in a moment,

The greatsword had already been corroded by salt, and the traces of salt were spreading along the hilt towards Chongyun's hand.

Chongyun's eyes flashed, and he decisively dropped his sword and leaped back.

"good chance."

Wang Que stretched out his hand and shot out several salt cones, which fell to the ground, exploded, and covered the ground.

As the heavy clouds fell to the ground, his expression suddenly changed.

The soles of his boots had sunk into the soft salt sand—the ground within a ten-meter radius had been completely salted.

At the same time, the power of salt was still continuously impacting his body.

"Ice Transformation Talisman."

Throwing down the sword didn't mean Chongyun had no other means. He shouted loudly, and a series of black ice talismans appeared around him, resisting the surrounding salt power.

Wang Que raised the corner of his mouth and rushed forward again, ready to pursue the victory.

"Don't ignore me."

Seeing this, Xingqiu turned his sword sharply and rushed towards Wang Que. Water curtains of sword energy appeared around him and shot towards Wang Que. At the same time, a sky full of water curtains stood up, trying to intercept and surround Wang Que.

"Well done."

Surrounded by the water curtain, Wang Que turned his body to the side to avoid the whistling sword energy. His eyes narrowed slightly, a salty white light flickered in his palm, and he pressed down with his palm.

In an instant,

Crystals continued to appear on the dark blue water curtain, and in just a breath, they solidified into a salt crystal curtain wall.

"Painting Rain-Covered Mountain!"

Xingqiu suddenly charged forward, stepped on the salt crystal wall, and spun in the air, infusing all his elemental power into the tip of his sword as he thrust it straight down.

Wang Que stared at the sword energy with endless sharpness, neither avoiding nor giving way. The Eye of God burst into a dazzling pale light, and the attacking sword edge turned into salt in mid-air.

When the tip of the sword touched his brow, Xingqiu's fine steel sword had become as brittle as a pancake, and with a crisp breaking sound, it turned into salt residue on the ground.

"stop."

Chongyun, who had escaped from the salt land, suddenly threw out three ice talismans to protect Xingqiu, blocking the spread of the salt power, and at the same time, cold fog enveloped Wang Que.

"Your salt corrosion can even transform elemental energy?"

The battle is over.

It ends with both men losing their weapons.

Wang Que smiled and brushed off the ice crystals on his shoulders. The cold mist that had frozen him was fading and turning into salt dust. "To be more precise, it's the suppression of ordinary elemental power under the amplification of power."

He wasn't talking nonsense.

If it was just the Salt God's Eye, he would naturally not be able to suppress Xingqiu and Chongyun together.

But unfortunately, he had the power of salt, and the addition was too great.

Their elemental forces cannot touch Wang Que at all and will be converted into salt grains.

However, Wang Que did not fail to notice the problem. The salt-white Eye of God on his waist had become slightly dim.

Xingqiu and Chongyun's divine eyes were still shining, even brighter because of the battle.

There is still a gap between the Eye of God rubbed by hand and the Eye of God given by God.

"Power increase?"

Chongyun rarely expressed doubts.

Normally when everyone is together, he is just a listener and rarely asks questions.

But the word "authority" still attracted him a little.

"Well, my current situation is a bit special."

Wang Que nodded slightly. "I went to the Salt Underground a few days ago and found some things. That's how I got this 'Eye of the Salt God'."

Chongyun showed a hint of surprise, he understood what Wang Que meant.

The other party found something in the salt of the earth that was enough to be called "authority."

Even though he was well-versed in the books at home and considered himself knowledgeable, Chongyun couldn't help but feel a little envious.

However, he didn't have any bad intentions. He was simply envious and happy for his friend.

Xingqiu leaned over and said, "Damn it! You went on an adventure without even waiting for me."

Wang Que shrugged: "Who told you to abandon me and run to Mondstadt?"

Xingqiu immediately understood what Wang Que meant and gave an awkward smile: "There's nothing I can do. I'm stuck in the middle, so it's really hard to do anything. I'd better stay away."

"But fortunately, the problem was resolved, so I rushed back."

As Xingqiu spoke, he patted Wang Que's shoulder, looking like a good brother.

"Ha, I don't care. Anyway, I won't suffer any loss, but your family has lost a lot." Wang Que said.

Regarding the plantation incident, although Wang Que's intervention broke the stalemate between the two parties, Feiyun Chamber of Commerce definitely suffered a loss.

This account will most likely be charged to Xingqiu.

But the plantation itself is Xingqiula's project, and the final outcome is hard to predict.

Wang Que made a profit, as he actually owed Xingqiu a favor.

"That's fine. With the changes in Liyue now, giving up some benefits is actually a good thing."

Xingqiu's eyesight brightened slightly, and he saw everything clearly.

With the passing of the Emperor, the Seven Stars will inevitably have to tighten their power, whether for the sake of stability or for personal purposes. It would not be a loss for the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce to make some concessions at this time and avoid the Seven Stars' edge.

It's better than being used as a chicken to scare the monkeys.

"Okay, as long as you're prepared." Wang Que nodded. "I'm planning to go to Fontaine later. Do you want to go?"

I went to Fontaine to learn about the production line technology.

If Xingqiu also wants to go, we can share our technology, which can be regarded as a return for Feiyun Chamber of Commerce's previous concession.

Xingqiu's eyes lit up: "When?"

Wang Que thought for a moment and said, "We should wait until after the Moon-Chuxing Festival."

It is already the beginning of September, and the Moon-Changing Festival is in mid-September.

There are less than twenty days left in total. If we set out for Fontainebleau, we will miss the Moon-Chasing Festival.

Xingqiu frowned slightly. "That's unfortunate. I'll probably have things to do by then."

Feiyun Chamber of Commerce is still very busy. Although he always doesn't take care of things, after he goes to Mond this time, his elder brother will definitely arrange a lot of things for him after he returns.

Although Wang Que felt a little regretful, he didn't try to persuade him any further. He looked at Chongyun and asked, "Does Chongyun have time?"

Chongyun also shook his head: "I may need to go back home. If I have time, we can talk about it later."

"Okay, let's talk about it later." Wang Que didn't care. It was still early anyway. If they decided now, there might be more surprises later.

Of course, Wang Que really wanted to go out together.

He only has a few friends, and it's a pity that they can't go out together.

However, it would be more convenient to go to Fontaine alone.

Many methods that are not suitable to be used in front of Xingqiu Chongyun can also be used.

The three of them rested and chatted for a while, then prepared to go back to Liyue Harbor together.

I got up, packed up my things, and made sure I didn't forget anything.

Xingqiu suddenly looked at the Rock Dragon Lizard Salt Sculpture beside him:

"By the way, aren't you going to take care of this rock dragon lizard?"

He also pointed.

They avoided this place during the battle, but did not destroy it.

Wang Que curled his lips and said, "This is the worst part of my test. Things that have been salted are almost impossible to reverse. So... there is nothing usable left on this rock dragon lizard."

Compared to other Eyes of God, you can hardly harvest any materials when using the Eye of Salt God in a fight, unless you deliberately avoid the opponent's valuable places during the battle.

Hearing this, Xingqiu felt a little happier: "It seems that it's not that powerful after all."

He looked at Wang Que with a teasing look.

Wang Que found it funny and pretended to be angry, wanting to hit him.

Xingqiu ran away quickly and Wang Que chased him.

Chongyun was left shaking his head helplessly. These two guys were so childish.

……

The journey back to Liyue Harbor was peaceful and we encountered no crisis.

The three of them traveled day and night and soon arrived at the last intersection.

"Cross the Heavenly Gate ahead and you'll be in Liyue Harbor."

Xingqiu pointed to the mountain path ahead where two large mountains intersected.

Because of the protruding mountains on both sides, the passage in the middle looks like a gate. Xingqiu calls it the Heavenly Gate, which is not a problem.

Wang Que nodded: "Almost there. When I came out, I walked from here."

He went to Tianqiu Valley and naturally left from here.

However, he did not walk at that time, but used the Escape Armor Talisman to get there.

The three of them continued to move forward while chatting.

When we reached the foot of the mountain pass,

Wang Que's ears moved, and he subconsciously pulled the two people around him to quickly dodge.

As soon as they dodged, several rocks fell from above, hitting the ground and making several small holes.

'Throwing objects from a high place?'

'Is there a robbery?'

Wang Que thought to himself and looked directly upwards.

Unfortunately, the rocks obscure the view and nothing can be seen.

Xingqiu and Chongyun were also startled.
