Contracting with Spirits: I Hunt Vengeful Ghosts in a High Martial World

[Ghostly calamities] [All kinds of demons and monsters] [System] [One female lead] [Ruthless] [Rapid growth] In a high-martial world, vengeful ghosts ran rampant and humanity was in decline. Just as mankind was on the verge of extinction, the ancient gods awakened. Everyone had a chance to form a pact with a randomly assigned deity and gain that god's abilities. Their combat prowess was ranked across five tiers: S, A, B, C, and D. Some made pacts with S-rank deities, such as the Victorious Fighting Buddha, Great Sage Sun! Others contracted with B-rank deities, such as Zhong Kui, the Celestial Master who captures ghosts! Still others contracted with A-rank deities, such as Jiang Zicheng, King Qin Guang! But Wang Chen contracted with a D-rank deity: the Old Man of the South Pole, the God of Longevity! Slay vengeful ghosts, collect yin virtue, and make offerings to the Old Immortal. You can extend your lifespan! "Hahaha, that's hilarious. Wang Chen, you contracted with the God of Longevity. Are you expecting him to help you capture ghosts?" "Wang Chen, I think your best bet is to go around wishing old folks a happy birthday. Maybe you can even make a small fortune." With ghostly calamities sweeping the land, everyone lived in fear. Only investigators who had contracted with gods capable of capturing ghosts were considered social elites and admired by all. Ordinary people, or those who had contracted with gods lacking combat abilities, had low status and lived worse than dogs. Just as he was despairing, Wang Chen discovered that as a transmigrator, he had bonded with a life-burning System that could enhance his spells and boost his qi and blood. Now Wang Chen had nothing to fear, and everyone else was panicking.
