Chen Lei stepped out from the void, and a streak of blood appeared on his neck.
When Chen Lei was attacking the leader of Haotian Sect, the Tower of All Things outside his body had already been absorbed into his body, forming a resonance state with the nine Nascent Souls at the same time, and then he killed the leader of Haotian Sect with one blow.
However, this also gave the killer in the dark an opportunity, and he almost beheaded Chen Lei with one blow.
At this moment, Chen Lei felt that the blood in his body seemed to be boiling, as if it was about to ignite his entire body.
Chen Lei knew that the reason he had this feeling was because the sharp blade that cut him contained a strange poison. The poison was so toxic that Chen Lei could hardly suppress it.
Chen Lei hurriedly activated the Tower of All Things. A talismanic light shone from the tower, covering every inch of his flesh and blood.
With the shining of these talisman lights, the toxins that entered Chen Lei's body were rapidly disintegrating.
The Tower of All Things was condensed from the Source Sutra of All Things. It had the ability to dissolve all poisons in the lower realm. In the middle realm, this ability was further strengthened. Therefore, although Chen Lei was poisoned, he was able to easily dissolve this deadly toxin by using the Tower of All Things.
At this time, Chen Lei had time to observe who was assassinating him.
At this time, a figure shrouded in darkness quietly emerged, staring at Chen Lei with cold eyes.
"Chen Lei, you have been poisoned by my deadly poison. You are doomed to die."
The figure, who was completely hidden in the darkness, spoke to Chen Lei in a hoarse voice.
"Who are you?" Chen Lei looked at the killer and asked directly.
"Guess..." The killer said to Chen Lei with a joking expression.
"Are you from the Dark Star Palace?" Chen Lei said.
"You are indeed quite capable. Yes, I am from the Dark Star Palace." This killer from the Dark Star Palace hid in the dark and witnessed the entire battle between Chen Lei and the leader of the Haotian Sect.
The Dark Star Hall killer asked himself that with his true strength, he was no match for either Chen Lei or the leader of the Haotian Sect.
However, as a killer, he does not need to suppress Chen Lei with absolute strength. There are many ways to assassinate Chen Lei, and strength is not the only one.
At this time, the Dark Star Palace killer did not take action immediately because he was delaying time. He wanted to wait until the poison in Chen Lei's body took effect and he had no ability to resist, and then he would take action to kill Chen Lei.
As for Chen Lei, he was naturally delaying time. The Tower of All Things in his body was devouring the toxins that had entered his body. However, it would also take some time to completely eliminate them.
Therefore, neither Chen Lei nor the killer from the Dark Star Palace wanted to take action immediately.
The two of them tried to test each other and delay time. When they felt it was about time, the assassin from the Dark Star Hall revealed a sinister smile and said, "Chen Lei, you are no longer able to fight. You have been poisoned by me. The longer you are poisoned, the more serious it will be. There is no medicine to cure it. Now, prepare to die."
The killer from the Dark Star Hall was very confident in the poison he prepared, so when he felt the time was almost up, he did not hesitate and rushed towards Chen Lei directly, wanting to kill Chen Lei completely.
