A Cloud Kingdom Classic Riddle

From The Grande Temple of Jing

Cannot climb but runs all day

Weaponless can quickly slay

Found in banks but not in chests

Rarely stops, no need to rest

A touch of salt may spell its end

Like a snake will twist and bend.

Doesn't eat but still gets fed

From it food's taken instead.

(answer is one word)

Take my guess exactly as typed

I'm not sure of the spelling
