Chapter 36: Spatial Rift
More than 100,000 years ago, an unprecedented war broke out between the Terran monks of the Shenwu Realm and the alien races who claimed to be gods.
The war lasted for a whole hundred years, and that war was extremely tragic, and the space was shattered! Even the Divine Martial Realm was torn apart and divided into nine pieces.
Later, the monks on the nine lands that were divided gave names to the regions where they lived, which was also the source of Kyushu in the Shenwu realm.
However, after 100,000 years, the nine lands slowly converged, and finally converged into a complete continent more than 10,000 years ago.
When the Divine Martial Realm was shattered, countless small fragments were also split. Many of these small fragments were caught up in the spatial rifts that were shattered by the powerful monks of the time.
These spatial rifts disappeared a hundred years after the end of the war.
Over the past 100,000 years, these spatial rifts have occasionally reappeared, and the time of appearance is indefinite, and the duration of maintenance can be as short as a month or as long as three or five years!
At this time, Zhou Yan was standing on the edge of a canyon! This canyon was called Qinglong Gorge, the largest canyon outside the main city of Qinglong.
The canyon is three zhang wide and more than 20 zhang high!
A gray crack in the middle of the canyon looking down from where Zhou Yan was standing was slowly expanding in all directions, and the space around the crack was distorted.
"Maybe it's really developed!" Zhou Yan thought excitedly as he looked at this rift.
He had seen records of this rift from the books in his home, this rift was called a spatial rift, and it was created by the shattering of space in the battle of the supreme power of the Shenwu Realm 100,000 years ago.
Later, these spatial rifts disappeared, occasionally reappearing for unknown reasons for 100,000 years, and then disappearing again after a period of time.
Passing through this kind of spatial rift will lead to a unique space, and there will be a small land in the space, which are all fragments of the Divine Martial Realm that have been shattered.
In the past 100,000 years, there have been countless such spatial rifts in the Shenwu Realm, some of the small spaces within the rifts are barren, while some of the small spaces within the rifts are full of treasures. There was once a lucky person who received the inheritance of a human emperor from 100,000 years ago in a small space, and instantly rose from the end of the microsphere! Now his family is already one of the most powerful families in the Divine Martial Realm!
The small space behind this spatial rift is like a treasure trove full of question marks, which can make people return without success, or it is possible to make people return with a full load. Each appearance attracts countless treasure hunters to flock to it!
And Zhou Yan, the spatial rift that appeared in Qinglong Gorge this time, was the first person to discover it.
He was going to wait for the spatial rift to stabilize, and then immediately go in and search for it, once he was discovered, he wouldn't have a chance to drink soup with his strength.
At this time, the rift has expanded to the point of half a meter wide and three meters high, although it has been able to accommodate people to pass through, but the rift is still expanding, and the space is unstable at this time, and it may be dangerous to pass. Zhou Yan could only wait anxiously on the canyon.
"It will take another three days for this rift to stabilize, and after it stabilizes, it will last for about a month!" Old Gu knew that Zhou Yan was anxious, and said.
"Three days! If someone finds out, how can I have my share!" Zhou Yan was a little anxious, few people came to Qinglong Gorge, but it was not inaccessible, and it was possible to be discovered at any time.
"Around the early hours of tonight, you can barely pass!, but since the rift is still unstable, there may be space turbulence tearing your body!" Lao Gu told Zhou Yan the earliest time he could enter.
"Will you die?" Zhou Yan asked cautiously, the spatial turbulence was a terrifying thing to know when you heard the name.
"No, because you are too weak! The cultivation of the Cyclone Realm passes through this rift, even if it is in an unstable state, it will not have any impact on this rift, and the power of the spatial turbulence is also very weak, with your body can withstand it, if you cultivate to a powerful cultivator, such as a Qi Dan Realm Nine Heavens monk, the moment you step in, even if this rift does not collapse, he will be instantly torn apart by the violent spatial turbulence! If a monk from the Transcendent Realm steps into this rift, this spatial rift will collapse directly!"
Hearing Lao Gu's explanation, Zhou Yan sighed for a while, it turns out that being weak is also beneficial!
"That means that this rift can't withstand the passage of a Transcendent Realm cultivator!, right?" Zhou Yan asked.
"The rift hasn't stabilized yet, but I estimate that the most I can withstand is a Qi Dan Realm Sevenfold Heaven cultivator!" Old Gu gave an accurate number.
Zhou Yan didn't care much about these, anyway, there was no difference between the Qi Dan Realm Seven Heavens and the Transcendent Realm for him, and he couldn't beat the same.
He just wanted to come early in the morning, and then the sooner this rift was discovered, the better!
Zhou Yan looked left and right, and finally in the early hours of the morning, the rift had expanded to one meter wide and five meters high!
"You can barely pass!" the old voice fell, and Zhou Yan jumped down towards the huge rift.
"Huh!" With a sound, Zhou Yan disappeared directly between heaven and earth, and the huge crack was still expanding.
...............
In the early morning of the next day, an old man who came to Qinglong Gorge to collect medicine found that the crack had expanded to two meters wide and eight meters high!
Reporting such a vision of heaven and earth will be rewarded with a lot of money.
Inside the City Lord's Mansion of Qinglong City.
Every five years, a grand competition was held in the northern regions of the Great Xia Dynasty, and young talents under the age of twenty-five could participate. In addition to the generous rewards, the first place will also receive the honor of being the first young person in the Northern Regions.
This honorary title is simply fatal for young people who love vanity.
And this competition will be held in Qinglong City in half a year, so the Qinglong City Lord invited the elders of the four major sects in the Northern Regions to discuss various matters of the competition in advance.
The four major sects in the Northern Regions are the Taibai Sword Sect, the Divine Sword Sect, the True Martial Pavilion, and the Qingfeng Gate.
While the Blue Dragon City Lord and the elders of the four major factions were discussing in the council hall, a member of the law enforcement team said outside the door, "City Lord, there is important news to report!"
"Come in!" the Blue Dragon City Lord motioned for him to enter.
When the members of the enforcement team saw that there were four elders in the council hall, they did not speak at first.
"There is no need for this! The four elders are not outsiders, just report it truthfully!" the Blue Dragon City Lord signaled that he didn't need to hide it.
Seeing that the city lord had said this, the members of the law enforcement team also spoke directly: "City lord, a gray crack has been found in Qinglong Gorge outside the city, and it is constantly expanding!"
The members of the law enforcement team didn't know the meaning of this spatial rift, thinking that it was just a magical vision of heaven and earth!
But the Blue Dragon City Lord and the four elders were already in shock, because they knew very well what the vision that the law enforcement team members said represented!
Seeing this, the members of the law enforcement team said: "Small, retire first!"
After speaking, he retreated and closed the door of the conference hall.
"Thank you City Lord for informing me of such important news, and I will take my leave first!" the elder of the Taibai Sword Sect spoke first.
"I will also say goodbye first!" said the Elder of the Divine Sword Sect and the Elder of the True Martial Pavilion.
"I hope that the city lord will block the news, at least not spread it outside the Northern Regions!
At this time, the Qinglong City Lord regretted it, he had nothing to pretend to be forced, if he had known that it was such a thing as a spatial rift, he would definitely hide it, and then block the Qinglong Gorge and lead his family to investigate.
This may have been an opportunity for him to rise, but it was unfortunately leaked out by him. Now we can only block the news as much as possible, cooperate with the four major sects, and reap as many benefits as we can.
