"Crack!"
And right under the astonished gaze of everyone, a space-shattering sound that echoed through the nine heavens suddenly came from the sky above.
As the sound of the space shattering rang out, everyone's pupils constricted sharply, their faces filled with shock. Under their utterly horrified gazes, they saw the space above Luoshen City suddenly split open, and a nearly ten-thousand-zhang-long crack abruptly appeared.
The crack, stretching for ten thousand zhang, was unfathomably deep, as if torn apart by an invisible giant hand. From a distance, it exuded a deathly black darkness, and a terrifying spatial torrent surged out almost madly.
The spatial torrent carried an extremely terrifying aura. If this terrifying spatial torrent were to sweep over, the entire Luoshen Clan would likely be flattened.
The eyes of all the Luoshen Clan's people were filled with deep fear. Such a terrifying celestial anomaly was something they had never seen before, truly too frightening.
"Is this actually a planar rift? Could it be that a prodigy from a lower plane has broken through the plane's constraints and descended into the Great Thousand World?"
Lu Tian Shen, being the clan leader, naturally had exceptional vision and insight. He immediately discerned the situation from the ten-thousand-zhang-long crack, his heart surging with shock.
It was well known that anyone who could break through the plane's constraints and descend into the Great Thousand World was undoubtedly a prodigy of unparalleled talent. These prodigies, though born in the lower planes, would be difficult for even the prodigies of the Great Thousand World to match once they broke through the plane's constraints and descended.
Lu Tian Shen was very clear that this was not an exaggeration but had precedents.
In ancient times, the first strongest being in the Great Thousand World, the Immortal Emperor!
The strongest being standing at the pinnacle of the Great Thousand World came from a lower plane. That god-like man created an immortal legend that would be celebrated for generations.
Lu Tian Shen's heart surged with shock. His gaze was fixed on the ten-thousand-zhang-long planar rift, his sharp eyes seemingly trying to pierce through the deathly darkness within.
Whoosh!
Just as everyone's eyes were filled with shock, staring at the black, ten-thousand-zhang-long planar rift, a sharp whistling sound suddenly came from the rift.
Then, under the horrified gazes of the crowd, a slender figure in a black robe shot out from the planar rift. The black-robed figure moved extremely fast, appearing above the Luoshen Clan in just a few breaths.
After the black-robed figure appeared, the terrifying planar turbulence quickly receded. A few breaths later, the ten-thousand-zhang-long planar rift that spanned the entire sky above the Luoshen Clan also healed.
The world instantly fell into a deathly silence. The entire Luoshen Clan's people heaved a sigh of relief, the previous anomaly having been truly terrifying.
The Luoshen Clan's people then turned their gazes to the slender black-robed figure standing in the air. The man was slender, carrying a large black ruler on his back, and his body emitted a faint, scorching fluctuation, giving off a somewhat eerie feeling.
The black-robed man also looked around the Luoshen Clan with a puzzled and curious expression, his eyes gradually showing surprise. It seemed he had entered a powerful race.
"It seems I got separated from Xun'er and the others while crossing the planar rift. I'll have to spend some time looking for them."
The black-robed man muttered to himself. Then his gaze swept over the hundreds of silver-armored soldiers of the Silver Armor Legion.
His gaze then settled on the black-robed elder standing in front of the hundreds of silver-armored soldiers.
A powerful imperial soul force spread from the black-robed man's body. After a soul probe, he realized that this elder was likely the strongest in this race. After a thorough soul scan, the elder's strength could not be detected, which made the black-robed man somewhat surprised.
"It seems the ancient Dou Emperors from the Dou Qi Continent did not die but came to this more powerful Great Thousand World. Indeed, there is always a higher heaven, and Dou Emperors are no longer the pinnacle of cultivation." The young black-robed man's eyes began to sparkle, and the blood that had been dormant for decades in his body finally boiled again.
Xiao Yan bowed to the black-robed elder, who was even stronger than a Dou Emperor, his body straight as a spear, neither humble nor arrogant, a smile on his lips, making people feel like they were basking in a spring breeze.
"I am Xiao Yan, from the Dou Qi Continent. I unintentionally descended here after crossing the planar rift, with no ill intentions."
Sure enough, upon hearing Xiao Yan's friendly words, the Luoshen Clan's people immediately lowered their guard. However, the Dou Qi Continent? It seemed they had never heard of it in the Great Thousand World. Where did this guy come from?
"The Dou Qi Continent?"
Many of the Luoshen Clan's people exchanged puzzled looks, their brows furrowed with confusion. They naturally knew little about this lower plane's continent.
"Ah, so you are Xiao Yan, my young friend..." Lu Tian Shen's face also showed a kind smile, and he continued, "I am the clan leader of the Luoshen Clan, Lu Tian Shen. If you don't mind, you can come down and chat. I'm sure you have many questions in your heart."
Lu Tian Shen was well aware of the talents of cultivators from the lower planes, so he was willing to make friends with them. After all, they had just arrived in the Great Thousand World and were unfamiliar with many things. If he could help them now, he could earn their gratitude.
"Then I will trouble you, Clan Leader Lu." Hearing this, Xiao Yan was delighted and smiled in gratitude. Lu Tian Shen's words struck a chord with him. He had just entered this new world and indeed had many questions.
Moreover, Lu Tian Shen, the clan leader of the Luoshen Clan, seemed to be a reasonable person, and Xiao Yan was willing to get to know him.
"Xiao Yan, my young friend, please follow me." Lu Tian Shen smiled, stroked his beard, and waved his hand. The Silver Armor Legion behind him immediately parted like a black tide, and Lu Tian Shen led the way.
"Such a powerful army..." Seeing the orderly and formidable Silver Armor Legion, Xiao Yan couldn't help but admire it. Then, without further thought, he transformed into a streak of light and followed behind Lu Tian Shen.
"Who is this black-robed youth? He actually came out of a spatial rift."
"Anyway, this black-robed youth is not simple. He remains calm even in front of a terrifyingly strong clan leader, with a truly extraordinary demeanor. Moreover, his strength is also very strong. I'm afraid no one among our Luoshen Clan's younger generation can defeat him."
"That's true. I can faintly sense a pressure from him, but it's not a spiritual pressure. That power is somewhat strange..."
"In any case, this black-robed youth is not simple. Didn't you see that even the clan leader is willing to take the initiative to get to know him?"
