Chen Ye reached out to take it, feeling the blade was extremely heavy in his hand.

The overall shape of the blade was also extremely rugged. The handle alone was about forty to fifty centimeters long; such a long handle was clearly designed for convenient two-handed gripping.

The blade was also extremely wide, roughly thirty centimeters across.

The spine of the blade was very straight, only curving slightly upward near the tip.

This blade looked just like the zhanmadao from the history of ancient Daxia.

Only, it was even more rugged than a zhanmadao.

With such a heavy weight, some sequences that didn't specialize in strength would probably find it difficult to even swing this blade.

They say Wonders have a spirit.

As if aware that the person holding it had changed, the blade trembled slightly, clearly somewhat unwilling.

But when Chen Ye tried to check this blade's data.

He felt a strong sense of resistance.

They say Wonders are like dogs; some are like Huskies, easily allowing their information to be checked no matter whose hands they are in.

But others are like guard dogs; aside from their original holder, it's not easy for anyone else to check their information.

He didn't expect to encounter a guard dog himself now.

Chen Ye remembered back in Oasis, that guy named Xiong Ba, the gun he used, which shattered Ding Shen's armor—armor that could even resist the Death God's Scythe—with a single shot.

That gun's terrifying appearance was clearly no ordinary thing.

It was just a pity that gun was also left behind in Oasis.

He didn't know how Oasis was now either.

Probably, it had already become a new Uninhabited Forbidden Zone.

"Haha... This is a very stubborn fellow. I wonder who its next master will be!"

"I hope they can make good use of its energy!"

"Following me was truly a bit of a waste!"

Ding Shen seemed to have noticed Chen Ye's awkwardness and said with a laugh.

Next master?

Heh heh heh...

Although he couldn't check this blade's information now, Chen Ye also knew its numbered ranking wouldn't be low.

As for giving something like this to someone else?

Don't even think about it; he wasn't that stupid.

Even if it was an untamed wild horse, as long as he had the System, one day, this blade would eventually be of use to him.

"Alright, kid, I'm about to die. Do you have anything you want to ask?"

Ding Shen tossed the blade to Chen Ye, as if letting go of the last bit of reservation in his heart, his whole demeanor instead appearing very carefree.

But along with this carefree air came a faint aura of death clinging to his body.

Chen Ye thought for a moment and asked, "About the Blood Moon Lord and the Son of the Blood Moon, do you know any other information?"

Chen Ye still had many doubts about the Blood Moon Lord sequence.

It felt as if there was a large hand secretly watching, always guiding him onto the path of the Blood Moon Lord.

Ding Shen shook his head and slowly said, "I don't know. When I first changed sequences, I just thought the Blood Moon Child Sequence was strong enough!"

"Of course, if I had to choose again, I definitely wouldn't choose the Son of the Blood Moon!"

"Why?"

Chen Ye asked in surprise.

"Listen to the name of this sequence, Blood Moon. A sequence related to the blood moon, what good sequence could it be?"

"It's precisely because of the appearance of the blood moon that the apocalypse happened."

"Many people deeply resent the blood moon."

"If it were peaceful times, sequences like ours would definitely be considered evil sequences."

"Do you know what my sequence name is?"

Chen Ye didn't answer.

Ding Shen continued, "The sequence name for Sequence 3 of the Blood Moon Child Sequence is called Fate."

"It seems to hint that we will eventually walk a path of fate that was arranged long ago."

"The sequence level names of other sequences are mostly related to their own abilities."

"Some are also related to their own characteristics!"

"Only the sequence names of the Blood Moon Sequence are solely related to fate!" 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"Although I don't know the sequence name of the Blood Moon Lord, I imagine it's the same. Think about it."

"Getting involved with the blood moon is not a good thing!"

"Kid, if you can, if you get the chance later, you should change sequences!"

Chen Ye remembered his own sequence name.

The name for Sequence 3 of the Blood Moon Lord was called Crimson Curse.

"Crimson" represented the red moon; did "Curse" represent some kind of curse?

A curse of the red moon?

Was this also an arrangement of fate?

Before changing to the Blood Moon Lord.

Chen Ye had also inquired extensively about information on third-change sequences, but no one ever mentioned the "Blood Moon" sequence.

Probably there were some reservations too.

No matter what sequence, except for the Blood Moon Sequence, no one could look directly at the blood moon.

Those who looked directly at the blood moon all went mad in the end.

"Have you ever thought about why the blood moon appeared..."

"Have you ever thought about what Wonders really are?"

"Where do those Anomalies come from?"

"What lies deeper into this new continent?"

"Who ranks the numbered rankings of Wonders?"

"There are too many things we don't know..."

As he spoke, Ding Shen's voice gradually began to fade.

Then his whole person also began to wilt.

Like a battery that had used up its last bit of charge.

"You..."

Ding Shen's whole body was hunched over, looking utterly wretched.

"Kid, quick, kill me..."

"As long as you kill me, you'll become stronger..."

"Don't waste it..."

"Hurry..."

Without a second thought, Chen Ye directly drew the Blasting Star from his waist, raised his hand, and aimed at Ding Shen...

"Bang~~~"

The gunshot echoed far into the gloomy sky.

Ding Shen's body tilted slightly, losing all strength in that instant.

A wisp of Smoke Breath steadied Ding Shen, holding him up.

With a cold, stern expression, Chen Ye came before Ding Shen.

He reached out and pressed his hand against Ding Shen's forehead.

When Chen Ye sensed the energy within Ding Shen, the corner of his mouth lifted in a hint of surprise.

He hadn't expected Ding Shen to still have so many abilities.

No wonder this guy could become Oasis's top expert.

It was just that some abilities weren't very suitable to display in the previous battles.

For example, Ding Shen had an ability called Combat Talent.

This Combat Talent allowed Ding Shen to have extremely strong combat capability when facing humanoid Anomalies.

But every time he faced were Anomalies, most of these Anomalies weren't very humanoid.

Therefore, the combat ability had limited effectiveness.

Like that previous "Tangled Crowd."

If Ding Shen hadn't suffered heart meridian damage due to the side effects of the Guardian's outburst, if he had engaged in close combat with this guy, he would have probably suffered a great loss nine times out of ten.

After the Blood Moon Lord kills a Son of the Blood Moon, he can harvest one ability from the Son of the Blood Moon.

Chen Ye picked and chose among Ding Shen's abilities...

As Ding Shen died.

Chen Ye also became aware of another ability unique to the Blood Moon Lord.

As a Son of the Blood Moon, Ding Shen's abilities could only exert ninety percent effectiveness when fighting Chen Ye.

But now, if another Son of the Blood Moon appeared, wanting to kill Chen Ye.

Then, this Son of the Blood Moon's abilities could only exert eighty percent effectiveness against Chen Ye.

If Chen Ye killed another Son of the Blood Moon.

His combat advantage against Sons of the Blood Moon would then become seventy percent.

And so on...

As for what the final few percent limit would be, Chen Ye didn't know.

This was the Blood Moon Lord's suppression over the Sons of the Blood Moon.

When Chen Ye's hand left Ding Shen's forehead.

Chen Ye felt a new ability within his body.

And Ding Shen had forever closed his eyes.

Oasis's top expert now resembled a withered, yellowed blade of grass.
