The Ultimate Borer

Chapter 278 Blue Rainbow Purple Lightning

"Boyue, Master Zuo!"

Han Sui saw Zuo Ci and Jiang Wei who were supporting Ma Chao at a glance, and immediately greeted them warmly. Jiang Wei saw Han Sui, supported Ma Chao with both hands and smiled at him.

"How is this possible? Ma Chao was clearly killed in my illusion, how did he survive? And you!"

Sun Ce looked at Zhang Fei in shock, and his trembling fingers showed that he was very excited.

"Your hand is clearly broken, how can it grow back?"

"All this is thanks to my master!"

Ma Chao looked a little weak, but his tone was full of relief. He took out a token from his arms with the word "Ling" engraved on it.

"It's Fang Mu's 'Golden Guard' token!"

Xiu looked at the token in Ma Chao's hand and immediately remembered that Fang Mu had used this token to expel them from the Golden Time and Space. Later in the Iron Time and Space, this token also helped Lanling King's fiancée Bing Xin escape the purge of the Yehenara family and finally be reunited with Lanling King.

"Luckily, Master asked me to leave this token with me when I left Xiliang, so that I could use it for self-defense. That's how I was able to escape death!"

Ma Chao looked at the dull token in his hand with a sigh. If it weren't for this token, he might have really died!

"Fang Mu, how do you know that Sun Jian's illusion has no effect on your token?"

Cao Cao asked with interest, in the illusion set up by Sun Jian, none of their martial arts were effective, so how did this token work?

"Although Sun Jian's 'Fire Flame' is incredibly powerful, capable of rewriting everything in the illusion according to his rules, he overlooked a crucial point: he can't modify rules outside of his own knowledge! This token of mine doesn't belong to either the Silver or Iron Dimension. Sun Jian never imagined I had something like this to save my life!"

Fang Mu slowly explained to everyone, then sighed.

"However, I didn't expect Zhang Fei to suddenly withdraw from his exposed state, so I had no choice but to transfer some of the token's energy to Zhang Fei at the moment his arm was severed. However, this also created the illusion that his arm was broken, which was enough to deceive Sun Jian!"

"Then how did you recognize Sun Jian's illusion?"

Xiu continued to ask, even he did not realize that he was in Sun Jian's illusion.

"I have this to thank for it!"

Fang Mu rolled up his sleeves, and the bracelet on his hand was still emitting a faint red light.

"If you hit me, I'll dodge?"

Amidst the brothers' puzzled expressions, the brothers in cultivation introduced the function of the bracelet on Fang Mu's hand. Although the main function of this bracelet is to dodge attacks, after being modified by Alliance Leader Jiu Wu, it can remind Fang Mu of nearby dangers in a timely manner.

When Fang Mu saw the bracelet light up, he knew that there must be very powerful enemies around him. Finally, he saw the demonized Sun Ce and A Xiang, and immediately realized that the powerful enemy hiding around him must be Sun Jian. He also knew that Sun Jian's unique skill was "Fire Flame" - this very powerful illusion, so he had prepared for it long ago.

"Impossible! I've never used this trick in front of outsiders. How did you know how to break my illusion?"

Sun Jian's face was full of disbelief. He didn't expect that he would be exposed from the very beginning. Not only did Fang Mu get involved, but he also got himself out in the end.

"Nothing is impossible. I told you, your illusion pales in comparison to that guy's!"

Fang Mu's face was grim. He couldn't possibly tell Sun Jian that he had watched the finale of "The Ultimate Three Kingdoms". The way to crack "Huo Yan Yan Yi" was to have firm beliefs and never give up, right?

As Fang Mu raised the Overlord World-Destroying Spear, the others also raised their weapons and glared at Sun Jian.

"Humph! So what if you break my illusion? The worst that can happen is that I'll just have to spend a little more effort to kill you!"

Sun Jian snorted coldly, then formed two huge fireballs in his hands again.

"Buzz...buzz...buzz..."

Just as Sun Jian was about to launch an attack, two strange piano sounds suddenly sounded from behind everyone. Everyone turned their heads and found that it was the old man with a Taoist look who was playing a peculiarly shaped guitar.

"This is?"

When Xiu saw the guitar on Zuo Ci for the first time, his eyes seemed to be glued to it, unable to move even half an inch.

"This graceful curve, this unique tone, this exquisite workmanship...it is simply the king of guitars!!!"

The moment Xiu saw Qinghong Zidian, he was captivated by this peculiarly shaped guitar. If he hadn't cared about the people around, he would have immediately wanted to rush up and hold Qinghong Zidian in his arms and caress it.

As Zuo Ci casually plucked a few strings of the zither, a localized rainstorm suddenly began to fall above Sun Jian, immediately extinguishing the two fireballs condensed in his hands.

"I actually forgot that there was this old ghost!"

Sun Jian's face suddenly changed. He didn't expect that someone of Zuo Ci's level would take action at this time, and seemed to be standing against him.

"Gulu!"

Xiu didn't care about the changes on the battlefield, but looked at the guitar on Zuo Ci and swallowed hard. For him, the attraction of this guitar exceeded everything else. If he could play this guitar, he would be willing to go to heaven!

"Stinky boy, hold your breath and concentrate, don't let the sound of my piano affect you!"

It was not until Zuo Ci slapped Xiu on the shoulder that Xiu suddenly broke away from the sound of the piano. He hurriedly wiped the saliva that was about to flow out. As a tone-deaf person and a master of other skills, he was more sensitive to sound than anyone else, so the moment he heard the sound of the piano just now, he was obsessed with it.

"This is not good!"

Sun Jian looked at the laughing crowd, thinking in his mind.

"With that old monkey Zuo Ci around, even though I can withstand his attacks and kill these brats, I'm afraid I'll be seriously injured. And there's also that bastard Fang Mu. If I don't kill him, I might disappear without a trace!"

(Note: In the Silver Time and Space, disappearing means death)

"Master Zuo, can you lend me this guitar so I can play it?"

Xiu looked at Zuo Ci with anticipation. He really wanted to feel the guitar. Although the guitar was divided into main and secondary strings, when Zuo Ci played the main string just now, the secondary string was also faintly vibrating and echoing with the main string. The tacit harmony of the two sounds was like the sound of nature.

"Do you want to play it? But I don't want to!"

Faced with Xiu's extremely fiery gaze, Zuo Ci immediately started to act like a child, pulled back the guitar that he was about to hand to Xiu, and held it tightly in his arms.
