Chapter 1483: The Mantis Stalks the Cicada

Wyatt Barnes had often imagined what it would be like to break through to the Peak of the Mortal Realm, pondering how many Sacred Veins he could open, wondering if he would be able to open all of them.

All of the Sacred Veins added up to ninety-nine in total.

Yet, when he truly broke through to the Peak of the Mortal Realm, he suddenly became calm.

"Sacred Veins…"

After opening the Sacred Veins he had intended, Wyatt began to look inward, observing the Sacred Veins within his body.

Now that he had broken through to the Peak of the Mortal Realm, it also meant that the Sacred Veins in his body were completely formed—they would never increase again, hence the heaviness in his heart.

It was precisely because of this heaviness that, while opening the Sacred Veins, he hadn't actually counted how many additional Sacred Veins he had created after reaching the Peak of the Mortal Realm.

Had he counted, he would have already known and wouldn't have felt so apprehensive now.
