Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Clan head Lu had sensed the barrier that he had placed on the courtyard of Young master Shirong break. But if it was just that he would have not been this scared, the thing that he was scared of was the spatial fluctuations he felt after the barriers broke.

"How are there such strong spatial fluctuations here? Did an expert decided to attack Young Master Shirong or something?" Clan head Lu wondered.

He had directly thought that Shirong was being attacked and had not even considered that a spatial rift might have been opened there. There were a few reasons behind this though, spatial rifts were quite rare and seldom appeared without any interference.

They only appeared if someone used a treasure, there was a disturbance in the spatial fabric or if some strong cultivator used a treasure to open a spatial rift. So it was easy to imagine the utter shock that clan head Lu had after seeing the large black rift that had been opened in the air.

"YOUNG MASTER! YOUNG MASTER SHIRONG!" Clan head Lu called out with urgency.

He couldn't see him as the black rift was sucking in a lot of debris and dirt from the area. Clan head Lu did not dare to use his spirit sense either as if it got sucked into the spatial rift, he would be severely injured too.

A spatial rift wasn't something that even he would deal with lightly. Besides, he had no spatial treasure that could help him in this situation. All that was on his mind was to find young master Shirong and get away quickly.

"I'M HERE!" Shirong shouted after hearing the voice of the Clan head Lu.

He felt a bit relieved, but then looking back at the spatial rift, he was getting even more scared. The pillar he was holding onto was the main support pillar and was thankfully quite firm and study. Even if the walls around him were being broken down, the pillar was holding on.

But he was not a fool to believe that he would be able to last long like this. If the spatial rift kept on expanding, it would become nearly impossible for the pillar to stay embedded in the ground. He looked back at the clan head Lu who had now landed on the ground, not daring to fly anymore.

If his control was lost even for a moment, he would be pulled in if he was in the air. At least on the ground, he would be able to hold on.

Clan head Lu quickly started to think of solutions to this, but realized nothing would work from his current position. He thus moved to the other side and came to stand some distance away from Young master Shirong's back.

He then took out a spirit tool that looked like a rope from his spatial storage ring.

"Young master, hold on to this, I'll throw it to you!" Clan head Lu shouted.

He knew that normal ropes would easily break and perhaps only a spirit tool might be able to hold on.

~Woosh~

The rope spirit tool was thrown, and it flew towards Young master Shirong. But just as he was about to catch it, the suction force of the spatial rift changed its direction and pulled it away.

"Dammit!" Shirong shouted.

"I'll try again, Young master!" Clan head Lu shouted.

By now a lot of people had noticed the spatial rift in the air. It was stirring up winds, and even the high pitched noise from it was heard across the city now. Many cultivators rushed to check up on it, along with the elders of the Lu clan.

They had seen their clan head run out with urgency and knew that something dire must have happened. Otherwise, their clan head who was a calm and composed person would never act like this.

"Heavens! It's a spatial rift!" Lu Peng exclaimed with shock.

The others had similar reactions and were dumbstruck. There were a few people who did not know what it was, but the others soon explained to them about the dangers of a spatial rift, especially one like this which seemed to be quite unstable and was sucking in everything it could.

"We have to help Young master Shirong and clan head Lu!" Clan head Mu spoke.

The clan heads of the other clans had also appeared after seeing the commotion. By now Clan head Lu had thrown the rope treasure a few times towards Young master Shirong a few times, but each time was a failure. On the other hand, the spatial rift was still growing in size and had now reached a diameter of three meters.

Its force had more than doubled by now, and the roof of the courtyard had long since been sucked into it, leaving the insides of the courtyard bare. The furniture that was not bolted down was also sucked into it, and now the walls were breaking apart.

The paved stone tiles in the garden were getting ripped out of the ground as well, turning them into deadly projectiles that clan head Lu had to dodge. The other people couldn't help but put more distance between them and the spatial rift. 

A few of them finally made a team and went towards clan head Lu.

"Clan head Lu let us help!" The cultivators said.

They were a mix and from multiple clans with some being from the Lu clan too. The only thing in common was that they were all core condensation realm cultivators. Qi refining realm cultivators were not qualified to even approach it, or they would be pulled in easily.

"Brothers set up the formation array." One of them shouted and started making hand seals.

The others followed and did the same, meanwhile clan head Lu took a look and coordinated with them. Soon, formation runes appeared in the air and started to move into the positions as directed by the cultivators. A triangular area was set up, with Young master Shirong at one vertex, clan head Lu at second and the team of cultivators at the third.

"Let's hope this works, or even if we survive this spatial rift, the Ji clan wouldn't leave us alive…"
