Crisis, Titled Douluo Recruitment Card

Blood Bat Venerable's appearance undoubtedly caused the situation, which had originally favored Liu Xinghan's side, to take a sharp turn for the worse.

The other side had gained another Titled Douluo powerhouse, while Ghost Douluo Hun Yue had been injured by the enemy's deliberate ambush.

"These Evil Spirit Masters really are cunning."

Liu Xinghan's expression darkened.

Blood Bat Venerable must have been hiding in the shadows all along. The reason he had only acted now was simply because he had used the red-eyed woman as bait, waiting for the right opportunity to ambush Hun Yue.

And he had indeed succeeded!

Hun Yue had not expected another Titled Douluo to be hiding here. Caught off guard, she had fallen victim to his sneak attack.

In the sky.

Within her Martial Soul Avatar, Hun Yue's face was pale.

It was not merely her injuries that troubled her. The real problem was the poison—Blood Poison.

Blood Bat Venerable's attacks carried a potent poison. Once struck, the toxin would immediately invade the body, making it extremely troublesome.

"You are also a Titled Douluo, yet you use such shameless methods. Do you feel no shame?"

Hun Yue was furious.

"Hehehe, as you said earlier, we are Evil Spirit Masters. Naturally, there is nothing we would not do."

Blood Bat Venerable let out a strange laugh, his gaze fixed hungrily on Hun Yue. "I heard that Spirit Hall has a Titled Douluo known as Ghost Douluo. That would be you, wouldn't it?"

"So what if it is?"

Hun Yue replied coldly.

Blood Bat Venerable stared at Hun Yue as though she were prey. "You won't be leaving today. If I drain your blood, my Soul Power cultivation can rise by at least two, perhaps even three levels!"

As he spoke, he immediately moved.

The seventh of the nine soul rings around him lit up as he unleashed his Martial Soul Avatar!

A massive dark-red bat with a wingspan of dozens of meters stretched across the sky, its thick stench of blood flooding the heavens and earth.

This was Blood Bat Venerable's martial soul, the Blood Bat King.

"I'll hold him back. You all need to leave now." Hun Yue hurriedly warned the Spirit Hall soul masters fighting below.

Her injuries were serious, and she could not hold off Blood Bat Venerable for long. She could only delay him as best she could and buy everyone time to escape.

Once she was defeated, no one here would be able to leave!

Everyone was badly shaken and prepared to retreat.

However, Blood Bat Venerable burst into wild laughter. "Trying to leave? Not a single one of you will escape today!"

In his Martial Soul Avatar state, Blood Bat Venerable spat out a mass of red energy, which landed on the severely injured red-eyed woman. Then he said, "Blood Spirit, these soul masters are yours. Don't let a single one escape."

After absorbing the red energy, Blood Spirit's previously shriveled body visibly filled out. In just a few blinks, she had completely recovered.

Seeing this, everyone was terrified out of their wits.

Although their side had more soul masters, it would be different if the enemy gained a Soul Douluo powerhouse—especially an Evil Spirit Master at the Soul Douluo level.

This was bad!

Liu Xinghan's face darkened.

With Blood Spirit recovered, even retreating would be difficult for them.

"No, I have to use that thing!"

With that thought, Liu Xinghan opened the system.

Over the past three years, he had drawn from the lottery more than twenty times. Apart from the Mental Power Cultivation Method, the Soul Scripture, the most valuable item he had obtained was another extremely precious treasure.

It was called the Titled Douluo Recruitment Card.

At first, Liu Xinghan had not known what it was. Once he understood, he had been shocked!

The system actually had something like this?

This recruitment card could randomly recruit a Titled Douluo powerhouse from the future of the host's timeline and bring them to the present world to serve the host. They would be one hundred percent loyal to the host, permanently!

In other words, once used, it would grant him a permanent Titled Douluo bodyguard.

He had always stayed in the Papal Palace before, so his personal safety had never been a concern. The item had been of no use to him, and if a Titled Douluo suddenly appeared out of nowhere, it would be difficult to explain their origins. Thus, Liu Xinghan had not been in a hurry to use it and had simply kept it in the system's storage. It would not expire anyway, so there was no harm in leaving it there.

But now that he was trapped in danger, he had no choice but to use it!

"System, use the Titled Douluo Recruitment Card." Liu Xinghan issued the command to the system.

"Ding, Titled Douluo Recruitment Card activated. Beginning recruitment."

"Ding, recruitment successful!"

"The target will arrive at the scene in three minutes. Please wait patiently, host."

The system's voice nearly made Liu Xinghan curse aloud.

What kind of joke is this? He still had to wait three minutes? At a life-and-death moment like this, every extra minute meant greater danger. Was this system trying to get him killed?

And he did not even know which Titled Douluo he had recruited.

The best possible outcome would be drawing one of the three Limit Douluos from the second part of the original story.

Dragon God Douluo Mu En or Dragon Emperor Douluo Long Xiaoyao would both do.

It would be hilarious if he drew Death God Douluo Ye Xishui. That woman was the leader of the Holy Spirit Cult, the Evil Spirit Master organization ten thousand years in the future, and one of the strongest Evil Spirit Masters.

Still, there was nothing to fear even if he drew her. The system's settings guaranteed that she would be one hundred percent loyal to him. Who cared whether she was an Evil Spirit Master?

I should have used it sooner!

Liu Xinghan smiled bitterly to himself.

He had never expected what should have been an overwhelming extermination battle to turn into this mess.

That foolish Soul Saint probably did not even know Blood Bat Venerable was in his own stronghold. He had inadvertently dragged Liu Xinghan's group into this disaster.

Just as expected of Evil Spirit Masters. Even in death, they still harmed others.

"Hold on for a few minutes. Bishop Bofeng, take some men and stop Blood Spirit. If she starts slaughtering freely and the situation collapses, we're finished!"

Liu Xinghan struggled to remain calm as he spoke to Bofeng nearby.

For now, they still held the advantage. As long as they relied on their numerical superiority to hold the enemy back until the Titled Douluo he had recruited arrived three minutes later, the situation could be stabilized.

"Alright!" Bofeng gritted his teeth and nodded.

Battle was on the verge of erupting.

At present, aside from Blood Bat Venerable, the Evil Spirit Masters had one Soul Douluo, one Soul Saint, and one Soul Emperor.

Liu Xinghan's side had three Soul Saints and five Soul Emperors.

However, because Evil Spirit Masters had strange methods, they were somewhat stronger than ordinary soul masters of the same realm.

Therefore, to deal with the Evil Spirit Masters' Soul Saint, Spirit Hall dispatched one Soul Saint and one Soul Emperor. To handle that Soul Emperor, they sent one Soul Emperor and five Soul Kings.

This left two Soul Saints and three Soul Emperors to join forces against Blood Spirit, the Evil Spirit Master who was a Soul Douluo powerhouse.

The remaining Soul King soul masters were not assigned to join the fight. After all, the gap between them and a Soul Douluo was too great. If they attacked, they would likely be killed instantly.

The battle began.

Fierce battles broke out throughout Ox Horn Village.

The violent Soul Power nearly destroyed the entire village.

Without a Titled Douluo opponent to suppress her, Blood Spirit displayed her terrifying strength.

In her Martial Soul Avatar state, a single strike instantly inflicted severe injuries on the Soul Saint powerhouse with the Golden Feather Condor martial soul. Her combat strength was terrifying.

As expected of an opponent who had forced Hun Yue to use her Ninth Spirit Skill. Even two Soul Saints and three Soul Emperors working together could not stop her in the slightest.

The terror of Evil Spirit Masters was plain to see.

Because of her terrifying performance, Spirit Hall's soul masters immediately fell into chaos. Their well-organized offensive had nearly suppressed the hundred or so Evil Spirit Masters, but after seeing a Soul Saint instantly suffer severe injuries, some soul masters panicked and turned to flee.

When one fled, others followed.

A terrifying butterfly effect occurred, and Spirit Hall's soul masters instantly showed signs of collapse.

"Trash!"

Liu Xinghan cursed.
