After testing the scooter, Leo returned to the shopping mall. He also put the vehicle for sale with a staggering price tag of 1,500 YOL.

The scooter was situated in the center of the shopping mall, next to the statue of Qiang Qiang, aka the four-armed mutant turned statue.

A thousand commoners and cultivators gathered around the scooter and observed it from a distance. Nobody dared to touch it as they were afraid of Leo and the fountain statue, who glared at them.

"1,500 Years of lifespan? Wow! That's expensive! I don't even have a hundred!" One of the commoners bitterly laughed.

A cultivator, who was a former commoner a few days ago, also commented.

"A muscle-tempering realm cultivator has roughly 100 to 200 years to live. A 2nd stage cultivator like me can live past 200 years. I doubt weak cultivators can afford that."

"Yeah. Only a prominent figure like Chancellor Tang Xuan or the handsome genius Gao Yan can afford it. We can only look and dream."

"Fool! Ya'll just need to invest your lifespan into cultivation resources first! You pay 20 years of lifespan to buy a grain pill. Once you become a proper cultivator, you seek a mentor. After you secure a cultivation method, you can purchase essence stones for one year each. Then, you accumulate life force and grow stronger from there!"

"…Sounds good. Doesn't work. No cultivator or sect around here exists anymore. The workers here don't accept disciples."

The spectators ran their mouths as usual. They speculated who would buy this artifact from Leo.

Several minutes later, Leo brought another scooter out for a test drive again. The people in the mall only watched him from afar as they didn't want to hear his tone-deaf song again.

After 10 minutes of test driving, Leo brought the bike back. He widely grinned and parked it near the first scooter. He then purchased a blank signboard from his system store and put it in front of the second bike.

Leo wrote the price tag of the second vehicle, including its specs.

.

.

"Hmm?"

"Huh?"

"Only 300?"

The spectators were surprised by the price reduction at first. Several cultivators got interested and approached the signboard to get a closer look.

However, when they realized that the vehicle only operated on land, they were disappointed.

"A two-wheeled carriage?"

"Isn't this a bit expensive?"

Many had a similar idea. But when their eyes noticed a certain line of description, they paused to think.

"Indestructible?!"

"Wait, what?!"

Leo had been waiting for them to notice the advertised spec. He explained.

"I've tested this earlier. The vehicle can withstand a full-power attack of an immortal with ease. Actually, I doubt even gods can put a scratch on the engine or the body frame."

"!!!"

Many cultivators widened their eyes and turned their attention to the bike's body frame and its material. One of them braced for danger and touched the seat.

It was firm and sturdy. He then applied some force to the seat, testing its durability.

BOOM

Suddenly, the bike's body frame generated a shockwave and knocked the cultivator away. As for the bystanders, they only sensed some breezy wind.

Leo grinned and wrote another line. While he was at it, he elaborated.

"This bike comes with a security system. If a stranger tries to harm it or steal it, it will generate a shockwave as a warning. If the thief tries to harm or steal the bike again, it will KILL the thief."

"WOW!!"

Many commoners, merchants, and weak cultivators were interested in this feature. As they were at the bottom of the food chain, they pursued security the most. Thus, a vehicle that was immune to thievery and damage seemed like an ideal investment.

A group of commoner merchants whispered among each other. Then, one of them stepped forward and saluted Leo to ask him.

"Immortal Florida Man, sir. I have a question to ask. May we inquire you something?"

Leo nodded. "Speak."

"About the payment, can multiple people contribute for the same item? For example, there are 30 of us, but no one has enough lifespan for it."

"Oh, you mean, your group wants to pool your lifespan to buy this scooter, right?"

"Ah. You are very wise, sir. Yes, it is as you said. Each of us will contribute 10 years of lifespan. With that, we have 300 years of lifespan to purchase the vehicle."

"I see no problem with that. We have a deal!"

"THANK YOU, SIR!"

All 30 commoner merchants were overjoyed. They planned to use the vehicle to replace the horses for their carriage since it seemed stronger than regular horses.

Leo collected their lifespan and gave them the keys. He also taught the group how to operate the bike. He went as far as teaching him how to drive it.

Some of the observing commoners salivated. The trade earlier gave them inspiration.

Many traveling vendors and merchants from other affiliates rushed back to the west slum to inform their colleagues. However, the local cultivators were unfazed.

"It's just a land carriage. What's the big deal?" One of the local workers chatted with his friends.

"For us, it's no big deal. But for the merchants who often travel across the mainland, this vehicle can be extremely useful. Besides using it to replace horses, I think they plan to use this as an emergency shield against robbers."

"No. You have no clue. This artifact is totally different from horses. If they use this to travel, they won't even need to rest. They can just keep on going until the passengers are tired."

"Right. There's that… Such innovation!"

Everybody glanced at the first bike, wondering if they should pool their YOL to purchase it.

Meanwhile, Leo had been listening to their little gossip and conversations. He walked toward the first bike and rewrote its specs and descriptions.

.

Max Range – 69,420 Miles

Top Speed – 1,200 MPH

Indestructible in Crashes

Require Driver's Qi to Refuel

Armed with Anti-Immortal Saw Blades and Protection Barrier.

Flyable

.

"HMM?!"

The specs were drastically different than the standard version. This time, the local workers were interested in the investment.

"Lord Florida Man, what's the anti-immortal saw blades?" One of them noticed the weaponry of the vehicle.

Leo snickered and activated the bike. He rode on it and flipped a red switch on the left handle.

Four robotic arms extended from the sides of the vehicle. At the tip of the arms, giant white saw blades intimidated the crowd with their sharp and nasty teeth.

VRRRR

The saw blades rotated while the robot arms moved around, searching for a target to slice.

"AAAAHHH!!"

The spectators panicked and pushed everybody in the back away, escaping from danger.

Leo stopped the saw blade function and widely grinned. He explained.

"As you can see, it is armed with four saw blades. This world is wild, and danger is everywhere. These blades will help you during your travel."

"…Wow. W-What about the protection barrier-"

WHOOM

Leo activated the barrier. He then invited the local workers to try their luck.

"This is another feature of this bike. When you feel you are in danger, you can activate the barrier by consuming the battery's energy. Also, I doubt any immortal can destroy this barrier. Anybody wants to test it out?"

"…"

No mortal or commoner dared to challenge the barrier. They looked at each other in reluctance.

While everybody hesitated, a voice came from behind the crowd.

"Let me try!"

The crowd parted ways for the challenger. Everybody looked at the person in front of the store.

The person was none other than Tang Xuan. He came here to see the commotion.

"Ah, welcome. Come. Have a try."

Tang Xuan nodded. As he had just ascended and became an earth celestial immortal, he wanted to test his full power on something. Leo's vehicle came at a great time.

The bystanders moved away from the barrier and Tang Xuan. As for the challenger, he rubbed his fist for a moment and threw a straight punch.

"HA!"

BANG

The punch hit the surface of the blue barrier. It caused a slight ripple, but the fist failed to pierce through the outer layer.

The spectators were speechless. They were aware that Tang Xuan had just recently advanced to the first stage of the immortal realm, but the guy couldn't even do anything to the barrier.

"…Wow."

"If I have that…"

"This artifact…"

The local workers stared at the bike with red eyes. Their hearts yearned for this vehicle as it represented safety and social status.

Leo observed his potential customers. He then announced.

"The line of production is underway. Every hour, I'll bring in a new bike. There will be multiple editions of them as well. But if anybody wishes to place an advanced order or reserve your vehicle, you can come and talk to me or the other cashiers in front of the supermarket. Then, I'll quickly touch up the bikes and deliver them to you!"

Everybody gulped. Even Tang Xuan stared at the bike and salivated.

Without hesitation, Tang Xuan made his decision.

"I want that bike you're riding!"
