Background / History
The family is a vast superpower formed around the bloodlines of the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise. Its ancestral land is the Heavenly Sacrifice Mountain Range in Hell, where colossal statues of the Four Divine Beasts stand around the mountain range and High-God patrols guard the territories. The Azure Dragon Clan occupies the eastern region. 44
At its height, the family maintained members throughout the Divine Planes, particularly in Hell, the Heavenly Realm, the Life God Realm, and the Netherworld. Its members traveled between planes with unusual ease through Main God Tokens, while its branches could mobilize powerful experts and distinctive Metal Lifeforms. 44 52 93
Gaisreisen, patriarch of the Azure Dragon Clan, led the family as a whole. The family’s four branches operated as one unit, with Gaisreisen and the other clan leaders holding deeply rooted prestige among their clansmen. 44 93 182
Conflict with Ailin
The family’s conflict with Ailin began after Azure Dragon Clan Elder Bensgodo was killed while seeking Blood Pattern Ice in the Netherworld. Gaisreisen treated the death of an elder as an unprecedented loss, but chose to investigate Ailin’s identity before retaliating. 30 44
The dispute intensified after Ailin killed further family members, including Ennio. The Four Divine Beast Family fought a long conflict against the Augusta Family and its allies in the Netherworld, deploying Hunting Teams and suffering repeated elder-level casualties. 93 95 105 112
To confront Ailin and restore the family’s prestige, Gaisreisen, Ges, Tia, and Andrew eventually mastered a combined Innate Divine Ability. Andrew’s later death rendered that specific four-person coordination unusable. 104 182
Fall of the Four Divine Beasts
The Four Divine Beasts themselves later entered a major conflict against Ailin and Augusta. Their plan relied on alliances with several Rulers and on their Innate Divine Abilities, but Ofu prevented their Combined Innate Divine Ability from being used against Ailin. 155 161
Azure Dragon was killed by Augusta during the battle. White Tiger, Black Tortoise, and Vermilion Bird were subsequently slain as Augusta pursued the surviving siblings. Beirut seized all four corpses amid the aftermath. 167 168
Present Crisis
With the Four Divine Beasts dead, the family lost its inexhaustible supply of Sovereign’s Might and its greatest deterrent. Rumors of their fall prompted hostile super families, former enemies, and opportunists to target surviving clansmen. 181 182 191
Gaisreisen ordered family members across the planes to withdraw to the Heavenly Sacrifice Mountain Range, collect remaining Sovereign’s Might, and preserve part of the bloodline in inconspicuous Material Planes if necessary. He also directed the surviving leaders to seek a new compatible combination for their Innate Divine Abilities. 182
Organization
- Azure Dragon Clan — Led by Gaisreisen; historically the leading branch within the family. 44 182
- White Tiger Clan — Led by Ges; Keshrolao later remains at its residence to guide Ges’s cultivation. 184
- Vermilion Bird Clan — Led by Tia; tasked with arranging the evacuation of Saint Domain clansmen to safer Material Planes. 182
- Black Tortoise Clan — One of the four core branches, represented among the family’s leadership. 85 182
- Netherworld branch — Based in the Dragon Soul Mountain Range and formerly managed by Ennio; it possessed twenty-two elders before Bensgodo’s death, nearly two hundred Six-star Demon members, and countless weaker clansmen. 84
Abilities & Skills
Divine Beast Bloodlines
The family’s defining advantage is the inherited bloodline of the Four Divine Beasts. Even ordinary High-God members possess unusually strong bodies and innate talents.
- High-God clansmen who undergo innate awakening possess at least Five-star Demon strength. 116
- Many elders are Seven-star Demon-level experts despite not necessarily having fused four Profound Mysteries. 30
- The family’s physical strength and bloodline abilities let even ordinary squads fight above their apparent level. 91 112
- Their clan members are known for extreme unity and willingness to fight or sacrifice for the family. 44 84
Innate Divine Abilities
Awakened family members can use abilities connected to their respective Divine Beast bloodlines.
- Azure Dragon — Dragon’s Roar affects time and can also affect the target’s soul; its area of effect makes it extremely difficult to evade. 32 163
- White Tiger — Possesses a devastating soul-oriented attack that can nearly bypass Sovereign’s Might and Soul Defense Sovereign Artifacts while absorbing Sovereign’s Might. 165 166
- Black Tortoise — Specializes in defense; its true body and defensive Innate Divine Ability can withstand extraordinary attacks. 162 164 167
- Vermilion Bird — Possesses soul-related and recovery-based abilities; its Innate Divine Ability can enable “rebirth.” 108
- Members can combine their abilities only under demanding compatibility conditions; Gaisreisen’s group required extensive practice to achieve this. 104 182
Battle Formations
The family’s numbers and coordination amplify its bloodline advantages.
- Elder-led squads can fight effectively even after losing their leaders. 91
- Large groups of Seven-star Demon-level clansmen are capable of using battle formations with decisive battlefield impact. 84
- Outside observers consider an equal number of Four Divine Beast Family elders more dangerous than comparable Augusta Family elders. 91
Resources
- Sovereign’s Might — Historically the family’s greatest strategic resource; its elders commonly carried a drop, and even Six-star Demon clansmen could overwhelm Seven-star Demons after using it. 32 37 84
- Main God Tokens — Used for interplanar travel and to mobilize Sovereign’s Armies in territories connected to the family. 52 182 191
- Dragon Transformation Pool and Dragon Transformation Crystals — Azure Dragon Clan resources that awaken bloodlines, Innate Divine Abilities, and can help clan members become deities. 170 184
- Phoenix Blood Wood and Phoenix Feather Flame — Vermilion Bird Clan awakening resources. 184 186
- Tiger Bone and Tiger Blood Pool — White Tiger Clan awakening resources. 184
- Black Tortoise Divine Armor and Golden Earth Pulp — Black Tortoise Clan awakening resources. 184
- Four Divine Beast-shaped Metal Lifeforms — Massive clan transportation vessels used by the family’s leadership. 44 93
Relationships
- Four Divine Beasts — The family’s Overgod ancestors and source of its four bloodlines; all four were killed by Augusta. 85 167
- Gaisreisen — Patriarch of the Azure Dragon Clan and overall leader of the family; directs its response to the deaths of the Four Divine Beasts. 44 182
- Ailin — Former enemy whose killing of Bensgodo and Andrew helped trigger the family’s conflicts; after the Four Divine Beasts’ fall, Ailin orders Beirut to protect the family temporarily. 44 161 178 180
- Augusta Family — Major rival faction; fought the Four Divine Beast Family across the Netherworld alongside allies such as the Ashcroft Family. 81 102 112
- Keshrolao — Paragon High-God who stays with the family under an agreement to guide Ges’s cultivation; his presence deters hostile factions. 183 184 191
- Beirut — Secretly tasked by Ailin with protecting the family for a limited period; he also uses pressure from hostile factions to influence the family’s decisions. 178 181 185
- Pash — Allows Beirut’s Dark God Avatar to serve as his Envoy, giving Beirut a basis to protect the family’s ancestral territory in Hell. 181
