Regarding Nalan Rou’s decision, Ye Luo would not object. In fact, this was Ye Luo’s own suggestion, and besides, Ye Luo actually wanted to see Yongfeng City and Tai’an Manor!

The Nalan Family’s business was in stone materials, yet these stones weren’t just plain stones; they were Spirit Stones, much like the green Spirit Mother stone that Ye Luo had once opened, which naturally contained a lot of Spiritual Power.

Therefore, this trip might allow Ye Luo to find the source of Spiritual Power he needed!

To condense a Qi Cyclone Realm, a large amount of Spiritual Power was needed. Perhaps the high-purity compressed Spiritual Power sold by the Royal Family was excellent, but the price was extremely expensive, and Ye Luo certainly couldn’t afford it now!

The Spiritual Power contained in the Spirit Mother was in no way inferior to those compressed ones, the only difference perhaps being that the Spirit Mother came with its own Attribute, making it a bit more troublesome to use.

But that was not something Ye Luo needed to worry about, because with his Seven-colored Power, he could effectively integrate any type of Strength!

So, this trip to Yongfeng City was both a public and a private matter for Ye Luo!

Forming a merchant caravan was not something that could be established immediately as soon as one desired; preparation took time, but none of this had anything to do with Ye Luo. At the moment, Ye Luo was being led by Nalan Chen, ready to purchase his own private transportation tool.

In the Great Tang Empire, the most popular mode of transport was undoubtedly the mechanical horse carriage. The only drawback was the generally high price of the carriage, because both the organ beasts used and the carriage itself were engraved with Formation, which could produce special effects when necessary.

Thus the high price.

This time, Nalan Chen brought Ye Luo to buy a much less effective personal transportation tool.

"Let’s go, this store has a comprehensive range of products that are good in quality and reasonable in price. You shouldn’t feel that the young miss has treated you poorly. After all, you’ve only just joined the Nalan Family, and even if you’re now a Contributing Guest, it was solely the young miss’s decision. The Elders at home have not yet fully recognized you, so, you understand." 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Nalan Chen said to Ye Luo with a smile.

Ye Luo nodded. He understood what Nalan Chen meant, but in fact, as far as Ye Luo was concerned, how could he possibly feel wronged? The fact that the Nalan Family was willing to provide him with transportation was already quite good for Ye Luo. Why would he complain?

"The two of you are here to buy transportation, right? How about it, do you have anything you like, or do you need me to introduce some options?"

A store attendant approached Ye Luo and Nalan Chen, smiling and asking.

Ye Luo didn’t speak. After all, he wasn’t very familiar with these transportation tools, while Nalan Chen replied, "Yes, please show us around."

"Alright, this way please."

"These are all the latest products from our store. Look, these here are high-quality goods shipped back from the Imperial Capital..."

The attendant kept introducing items to Ye Luo and Nalan Chen.

Personal transportation tools in the Martial Realm were divided into three main categories. The first was pure technology products, essentially upgraded versions of cars and motorcycles from Earth, although these technological products were rarely chosen and were very cheap. If they were on Earth, they would merely count as non-motorized vehicles.

As for the reason, firstly, in the Martial Realm, whatever it was, the main energy source was from Spiritual Power. Simultaneously, everyone in the Martial Realm pursued formidable Strength and combat power. No matter how simple a transportation tool seemed, in reality, it was also a symbol of a person’s power and status.

The second type was similar to carriages. These transportation tools generally have special functions due to the engraved Formations and, in crucial moments, could even save the owner’s life. This type equated to motor vehicles!

Of course, those were just standard configurations.

The real premium goods were the third kind, Sumi-Honor!

What was Sumi-Honor?

Although nominally a transportation tool, Sumi-Honor was, in fact, a Magical Treasure!

Firstly, Sumi-Honor was typically crafted into accessories like earrings, bracelets, and rings, making it extremely convenient to carry around. When needed, it could be activated directly using Spiritual Power or Divine Sense.

Once activated, a virtual honorable form, whether animal, humanoid, or mechanical in appearance, could instantly be summoned. The forms of Sumi-Honor varied greatly.

But without exception, each possessed various powerful abilities, whether formidable defensive power, terrifying attack strength, or auxiliary capabilities like healing and enhancement.

Naturally, the price of Sumi-Honor was a bit excessively high.

Sumi-Honor, although divided into many types according to the degree of their powerful functions, had even the cheapest starting at at least a hundred gold.

It could be said that when the attendant introduced Sumi-Honor, Ye Luo was completely captivated.

Lamborghinis and BMW Audis seemed like nothing in front of Sumi-Honor!

But looking at the high price, Ye Luo’s brows furrowed because he couldn’t afford it.

Suddenly, Ye Luo noticed on the side, there was a white ring-shaped Sumi-Honor tagged for only one gold!

What was this about?

Without another word, Ye Luo walked over.

"Young Master, are you also interested in taking the challenge?"

Challenge?

Ye Luo was slightly stunned, somewhat puzzled.

But the voice of Nalan Chen had already sounded.

"It’s an old rule of their store; they wouldn’t sell the most powerful Sumi-Honor directly, but rather set up questions. If someone can successfully overcome the challenges, they can take the Sumi-Honor directly! If they fail, they pay a fee of one gold for the challenge!"

So that was it!

But Ye Luo couldn’t help but want to give it a try!

"Oh, tell me, what is your challenge?"

Nalan Chen hesitated to speak, knowing that the challenge was not so simple to complete, but he also wanted to see what extent Ye Luo could achieve.

Hearing Ye Luo actually asking about the challenge, the attendant was also slightly startled. Nobody had enquired about the store’s challenges for a long time, because they were indeed too difficult!

However, the attendant didn’t think Ye Luo would actually take on the challenge. Perhaps, after hearing the nature of the challenge, he would give up!

"Young Master, please look, these are our store’s three major challenges!"

"The first challenge, Two Realms Broken Tune!"

"The second challenge, Three Lives Labyrinth!"

"The third challenge, Seven Refinement Soul Lock Tower!"

Just by hearing the names, they seemed very impressive, but unfortunately, Ye Luo had no idea what they entailed.

Should he give it a try?

Ye Luo’s brows slightly furrowed. Sumi-Honor was a good item, and Ye Luo indeed wanted to obtain it, but if he were to just go and take on the challenge straight away, was he really confident?
