Ye Jun had once witnessed the very fabric of reality being torn apart in dreams of the Convergence, and the opening of the Rift gave him the same feeling. But upon further inspection, he realized a crucial difference between the two.
'In the dream, it really tore apart the fabric of reality, but this is different,' Ye Jun thought, tapping on his sheathed Ember Sword. 'This is just cutting through space.'

Whatever created these rifts was actually just tearing through the four dimensions of their universe, not actually putting a tear in reality.
