Chapter 14 – Out of Control 失控

The exchange meeting among the three sects officially began, and the combat session started first. The disciples of each sect showed their best skills. For a moment, spells were flying all over the field, making people dazzled. Lin Yuan stepped onto the stage as a representative of the Longevity Sect. He combined the Wind Shadow Body Technique and the basic saber technique so skillfully that his attacks were as fierce as a violent storm. In the audience, the elders and disciples of each sect were in an uproar, discussing this previously unremarkable young man.

Liang Zijie (specializing in swordsmanship), a disciple at the early Foundation Establishment stage of the Yintian Sword Sect, was even more outstanding. In the combat, with his almost perfect body technique and exquisite swordsmanship, he easily defeated his opponent from the Yiyuan Sect and instantly became the focus of the whole audience. This put a great deal of pressure on Lin Yuan and the disciples of the Longevity Sect.

In the second match, Lin Yuan faced Liang Zijie. Everyone thought he had no chance of winning, and even some disciples of the Longevity Sect began to worry that this competition would bring shame to the sect. However, Lin Yuan was calm and composed. With the help of the Golden Eyes, he saw through the flaws in the opponent's swordsmanship in advance. Coupled with the "Transform into a Shadow" skill of the Wind Shadow Body Technique, he made a beautiful surprise attack and successfully won the match.

This battle directly made Lin Yuan famous overnight and turned him into the "super dark horse" of the Longevity Sect. The disciples of the Longevity Sect were so excited that they cheered and jumped, as if they had seen the hope of the sect's rise.

During the break of the combat session, the deacon of the Longevity Sect took out one of the most attractive rewards of this exchange meeting – the low-grade magic weapon "Liuguang Mirror". This thing was no ordinary item. It was said that it could reflect spiritual energy attacks and was a rare treasure.

However, an accident occurred during the display! The Liuguang Mirror suddenly went crazy, and its spirituality got out of control. It burst out a blinding light, and the entire combat field instantly became chaotic. Disciples with low cultivation levels were knocked around by the shockwave, and the elders quickly set up a barrier, trying to control the situation.

An elder of the Yintian Sword Sect took the opportunity to speak sarcastically, "Tsk tsk, it seems that the treasures of the Longevity Sect are just so-so." As soon as these words were spoken, the tension between the disciples of each sect became even more intense, and they almost started fighting.

What was even more outrageous was that the out-of-control spirituality of the Liuguang Mirror triggered spatial fluctuations, directly sucking itself and some of the surrounding disciples into a spatial crack. Among them were Lin Yuan, Meng Xinghe, Bai Moli, and several unlucky disciples from the Yintian Sword Sect and the Yiyuan Sect.

In the spatial crack, Lin Yuan discovered the reason for the Liuguang Mirror's loss of control with the help of the Golden Eyes – it had absorbed too much spiritual energy, and the internal spiritual patterns were in a mess. He made a prompt decision, used the basic saber technique to guide the spiritual energy back to stability, and then used the Wind Shadow Body Technique to lead the other disciples out of the dangerous area one by one.

Lin Yuan's series of actions left the elders stunned, and the disciples of the Longevity Sect were even more admiring. Finally, the elders stabilized the out-of-control situation of the Liuguang Mirror, and the chaos gradually subsided.

When Lin Yuan returned to his seat, he found that Lin Xuefei had been staring at him. He couldn't help but tease, "Senior Sister, do you think I was cool just now?" The corners of Lin Xuefei's mouth twitched slightly, and she showed a half-smile expression, "Well, your performance was not bad." Lin Yuan thought to himself that although Senior Sister Lin seemed cold and aloof, she was actually a bit "expressionless", but perhaps she actually had a warm heart.

=====================

三派交流会正式开场,比斗环节率先打响.各派弟子纷纷拿出看家本领,一时间,场上法术乱飞,看得人眼花缭乱.林远作为长生派代表上台,他把风影身法和基础刀法结合得那叫一个妙,攻击如狂风暴雨般凌厉.观众席上,各派长老和弟子们都炸开了锅,纷纷议论这个之前不太起眼的小子.

音天剑派的筑基初段弟子梁子杰（主修剑法）更是出色,在比斗中以近乎完美的身法和精湛的剑术,轻松击败一元宗对手,瞬间成为全场焦点.这可把林远和长生派弟子们压力拉满.

第二场,林远对上梁子杰,所有人都觉得他毫无胜算,就连一些长生派弟子都开始担心这场比试会让门派丢脸.可林远不慌不忙,凭借金瞳提前看穿了对方剑法的破绽,再加上风影身法的 "化影" 技能,一个漂亮的突袭,成功拿下比赛.

这一战,直接让林远一夜成名,成了长生派的 "超级黑马".长生派弟子们激动得欢呼雀跃,仿佛看到了门派崛起的希望.

比斗休息期间,长生派执事拿出本次交流会最吸引人的奖励之一 —— 下品法器 "琉光镜".这玩意儿可不简单,据说能反射灵力攻击,是个不可多得的宝贝.

可就在展示的时候,意外发生了!琉光镜突然像发了疯似的,灵性失控,爆发出一道刺眼光芒,整个比斗场瞬间乱成一锅粥.修为低的弟子被冲击波震得东倒西歪,长老们赶紧布下结界,试图控制局面.

音天剑派的一位长老趁机阴阳怪气:"啧啧,看来长生派的宝贝也就这水平嘛." 这话一出,各派弟子之间的火药味瞬间更浓了,差点就打起来.

更离谱的是,琉光镜灵性失控还引发了空间波动,直接把自己和周围的部分弟子吸进了一个空间裂缝里,其中就包括林远,孟星河,白茉莉,还有几个音天剑派和一元宗的倒霉蛋.

林远在裂缝里,凭借金瞳发现了琉光镜失控的原因 —— 吸收灵气太多,内部灵纹乱成一团.他当机立断,用基础刀法引导灵气回归平稳,再施展风影身法,把其他弟子一个个带出危险区域.

林远这一系列操作,看得长老们目瞪口呆,长生派弟子们更是佩服得五体投地.最终,琉光镜的失控被长老们稳定下来,混乱也渐渐平息.

林远回到座位,发现林雪霏一直在盯着他.他忍不住打趣:"师姐,是不是觉得我刚才帅爆了?" 林雪霏嘴角微微上扬,露出一个似笑非笑的表情:"嗯,表现还不错." 林远心里琢磨,这林师姐看着高冷,其实就是个 "面瘫",内心说不定也挺火热的.
