Can someone please help me with this riddle:

This thing all things devour
Birds, beast, trees, flowers
Gnaws iron, bites steel
Grinds hard stones to meal
Slays king, ruins town
And beats high mountain down.

Thank you for any help

I thought "water" might be the answer.

All living things "drink" it.
It corrodes iron and steel, wears down stone and erodes mountains.
The only bit I can't fathom is "slays kings"
