Default WTF is goin on..... Mad air being pushed out the valve cover.

I did a valve adjustment just recently and when I go to open the oil filler cap mad air rushes out and makes a deep deep noise. Its pretty loud too. It hadnt done this before. Anyone Know whats goin on ? BTW the valve adjustment cut back my valve train noise so its to spec.
