"Five Ghosts, you must know what this is!" Jiang Yuan held up the Book of Life and Death of Chaos, the hellfire on it constantly changing.

"Greetings, Master!"

At this moment, the Five Ghosts were completely convinced. Hellfire was originally the exclusive property of that great man, but now it had appeared on Jiang Yuan, so the outcome was predictable.

However, they did not feel any unease because of this. On the contrary, they felt a deep sense of relief. The companion ghost fire was too obsessive, and its existence would threaten the entire human world sooner or later. Jiang Yuan was different. He was a human himself, and his first consideration was the human race. In addition, given his past actions, his entry into the black market was definitely more beneficial than harmful to the human race and even the entire battlefield.

"This is a divine talent, and it is also the prerequisite for your loyalty to me. I have no need for the weak, much less for traitors!" Five misty spheres appeared in Jiang Yuan's hand.

After absorbing the accompanying ghost fire, Jiang Yuan's own death god ability has been developed to a new level. The previous drawback of not being able to condense a super talent or above has also disappeared. Moreover, due to the improvement of reincarnation, the cost of replacing a talent has been greatly reduced.

According to the original requirements, replacing a super talent would require 100,000 Dead Marks, but in the cycle of reincarnation, he only needs to use one-tenth of the cost to complete such a talent. In fact, if he were to replace it on the battlefield, he could do so without any loss, provided that he kills the enemy first and then replaces them on the battlefield.

After the Super Talent comes the Divine Talent, which requires millions of replacements. It is the talent that comes after the Super Talent and before the Immortal Talent. Each replacement of a Divine Talent requires one million Marks of the Dead. However, Reincarnation still affects the Divine Talent, and currently only half or even less Marks of the Dead are needed for replacement.

"What kind of talent is this!"

The five ghosts felt a tremor emanating from the soul.

"You think you're ghosts, but you don't know that ghosts on earth are gods in heaven. Only true ghost and god talents are suitable for you." The divine talents that Jiang Yuan took out were not weak. He spent two million dead marks to create the five talents.

"spirits!"

The five ghosts' eyes gleamed with a strange light. They had always lived in the shadows, vengeful spirits walking in darkness. No one had ever told them that they could live openly in the sunlight and become gods. But now Jiang Yuan was telling them that he was a ghost god!

"Don't worry, I won't force you. It's up to you whether you stay or leave!" Jiang Yuan placed the five ghost god talents in front of the five ghosts and then quietly waited for their decision.

"Wen Gui swears to serve Lord Death to the death!"

The first to make a choice was Wen Gui, who had dealt with Jiang Yuan before. He knew how terrifying the man in front of him was, especially after realizing that he was the victor all along the way, which made his choice even more firm.

"Very good, this divine talent is yours!"

Jiang Yuan replaced Wen Gui with his talent and left his mark on his soul. These people were originally loyal to the companion ghost fire, so it was perfectly normal for them to serve their master in death.

"The Wise Demon swears to serve Lord Death to the death!"

"Learn from ghosts..."

"..."

One by one, all five pledged allegiance to Jiang Yuan, and their souls became connected with Jiang Yuan. Rather than saying they were loyal to Jiang Yuan, it would be more accurate to say they were loyal to the cycle of reincarnation.

"Take me to the black market treasure vault!"

Jiang Yuan had already seen how terrifying the black market's vaults were from his previous series of actions; it was definitely the organization with the richest treasure trove in all of China.

Moreover, that's not the most important thing. The most important thing is that the black market is one person's wealth. Whether it's the Five Ghosts or anyone else, they were all nurtured by the Companion Ghost Flame. Everyone obeys the Companion Ghost Flame. Now that the Companion Ghost Flame has become part of the Grim Reaper, everything in the black market has naturally become Jiang Yuan's private property.

"Yes, sir!"

However, just as the Five Ghosts were about to take Jiang Yuan to the black market vault, a melodious sea melody drifted from the horizon, and the local Wen Gui among the Five Ghosts' expressions changed drastically.

"What's wrong?"

Jiang Yuan recognized the difference in Haiqu's sound; it was the sound of waves crashing against the shore, but today Haicheng was calm and still, so there was none of that...

"etc!"

Jiang Yuan's pupils contracted sharply. He asked, "How long have I been entangled with the companion ghost fire?"

“A day and a half!” An Xiaoyu immediately replied.

"So, it's now March 17th of the sixth year of the Tianqi reign?" Jiang Yuan's heart skipped a beat.

“That’s right, it’s exactly midnight.” As a diviner, Gong Suxin pays great attention to the timing of events.

Jiang Yuan glanced at the aurora on the horizon and quickly took out the Sea Spirit Conch. Sure enough, a war song from the seabed came out of it, indicating that the sea creatures had invaded.

The 82nd Calamity of Haicheng will descend at midnight on the 17th day of the third month of the sixth year of the Tianqi era, with the landing sea creatures mainly consisting of Yaksha sea monsters, blue ice claws, and serrated shrimp. This was a warning given by the Sea Spirit Conch, and it is now beginning to come true.

"What's wrong? Has the sea creatures invaded?" Liu Zhaodi asked tentatively.

Jiang Yuan nodded noncommittally and gave the order: "Summon everyone in the black market and head to the Bund to prepare for battle."
