The four divine beasts—Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise—each displayed their supernatural powers and descended upon the heavens.
The dragon, phoenix, and four other mythical beasts are all auspicious creatures, and if you really want to categorize them, they can indeed be considered a type of demon.
However, these divine beasts are born extraordinary and are destined to reach the highest level, so they naturally look down on these low-level demonic beasts with thin bloodlines and almost none at all.
There are many types of dragons, including Azure Dragon, Yinglong, Zhulong, Golden Dragon, and so on.
Among them, Yinglong is the most revered. Yinglong inherits the bloodline of the ancestral dragon and is the destined emperor and natural leader of the dragon race.
Below Yinglong, the Golden Dragon is the strongest, with the Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon being the most revered, followed by Zhulong, and finally the Azure Dragon.
Observing the strange phenomena in the sky, Jiang Che's eyes were full of interest, and he became increasingly looking forward to the various opportunities that might come his way.
If possible, what Jiang Che would want most is the Phoenix Rebirth, a divine technique that grants immortality and indestructibility.
The Phoenix Clan's supernatural abilities are unparalleled and monstrous. Even if their physical body is destroyed and they are beyond dead, as long as their soul has not completely dissipated, even if only a trace of their divine consciousness remains, they can be reborn through the Nirvana Technique. This is more than a hundred times more powerful than Xu Fu's rebirth through blood.
If the Qilin alien species had previously possessed this supernatural power, even if I completely annihilated its soul, I still wouldn't be able to completely kill it.

153: The Legacy of the Ancient True Phoenix! Rescue the Sealed Moon Goddess Chang'e?
Half an hour later, the strange phenomenon gradually dissipated, converging into a golden pillar of light that poured down and instantly enveloped Jiang Che's entire body.
Jiang Che did not offer any resistance as the golden light shone and covered his entire body.
Ripples spread through the void, the air was torn apart, and a deep, dark black hole suddenly appeared.
Jiang Che took a step and went straight into the black hole.
After Jiang Che entered, all the strange phenomena in the world disappeared, vanished without a trace, and completely dissipated.
...........................
Enveloped in dazzling golden light, traversing the other side of the Milky Way and passing through countless stars, it felt as if only a moment had passed, yet also as if an entire world had gone by, before Jiang Che's figure appeared in a vast, empty space.
Within the divine realm, the space was vast and boundless, filled with spiritual energy, flowing with Daoist principles, radiant with immortal light, and glowing with boundless rosy light. It was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Within the vast space, apart from various ownerless floating orbs of light, there were no other living beings.
Looking around, Jiang Che used his divine sense to cover the void within a radius of ten thousand miles, but it could only barely cover the tip of the iceberg of this divine realm.
With one breath, Jiang Che felt an immeasurable and unimaginable surge of spiritual energy from heaven and earth enveloping him, giving him a sense of mental clarity, ethereal bliss, and the feeling of ascending to immortality.
The spiritual energy within this inheritance space is more than a hundred times richer and more mellow than that of the King's Continent!
If he could stay here to cultivate for a long time, Jiang Che was confident that even without relying on any external aids, he could break through to the Void Refining stage or even the Body Integration stage within a year by relying solely on Qi Refining cultivation!
But he could only think about it; such an idea was completely unrealistic.
Upon entering this divine realm, Jiang Che was suddenly bombarded with a wealth of information, learning that he could only stay here for a maximum of three days.
How much unclaimed inheritance he can acquire within the stipulated three days depends on his own luck.
At the same time, Jiang Che also gained a clearer understanding of the formation of this demon god space.
In ancient times, the horns of war of the gods sounded. Due to differences in their ideologies, the gods began a war that would never end.
That great battle not only took place in the Upside-Down Heaven, but also affected the entire King's Continent, including the demon gods who lived in the Cloud Land.
The demon god of the demon race, with his foresight, had no choice but to go to the Upside-Down Heaven to participate in the battle after being summoned, knowing that he would surely die and would have little chance of escaping unscathed.
In order to leave a legacy for the demon race, they, along with several demon gods of that time, used their vast magical power to create this small world, leaving behind their respective inherited supernatural abilities.
Then, the Demon God Jade Token was used as the key to unlock this small world, and it circulated among the demons of the Cloud Desert.
However, that history is too ancient, more than 100,000 years ago. In addition, the demon race does not have the habit of compiling major events into books like the human race. Therefore, the current demon race has no knowledge of this demon god inheritance in the Cloud Desert, and has never even heard of it.
Only Heishan Jun, a unique Qilin species, obtained the Demon God Jade Token by chance in another secret realm, thus learning about this buried history.
Relying on the various inheritances within the inheritance space, he began his extraordinary life.
However, although these inheritances are ownerless, they cannot be forced. They all possess a certain level of intelligence and retain a trace of the divine thoughts of ancient demon gods. They are not entirely without requirements for the inheritors.
To obtain the inheritance of these demon gods, one must first gain the approval of their remnant souls.
Although Black Mountain Lord possesses a trace of Qilin bloodline, it is very thin, and he obviously cannot gain much recognition from the remnants of the demon gods. After coming eight times, he only managed to obtain a few inheritances such as the wooden Qilin and the ancient demon god.
Upon realizing this, Jiang Che's expression became somewhat strange.
Regardless, Black Mountain Lord is a genuine descendant of the demon race. Although his bloodline talent is not strong, he is still a true demon. Even he could not gain much inheritance. Can a human really do it?
"Since we're already here... let's try our luck..."
Jiang Che muttered to himself, clearing his mind of the jumbled thoughts, and began to wander around in this vast and boundless space.
...............................
As Jiang Che estimated, after traveling for an hour, he encountered countless orbs of inheritance light. However, these inheritances were clearly not interested in Jiang Che's human identity and had no intention of bestowing any blessings upon him.
After countless setbacks, Jiang Che finally stopped under a towering ancient tree with lush foliage. He raised his eyes slightly and looked at the colorful ancient tree that was radiating brilliant light not far in front of him.
As soon as Jiang Che set foot in this area, he felt a calling and knew that with such an opportunity before him, he would not easily miss it.
The ancient tree's species is unidentifiable, but its branches and leaves are lush and numerous, bearing bright red fruits that emit an enticing fragrance that permeates the air.
Taking a light sniff, Jiang Che subconsciously swallowed, feeling a strong urge to eat.
He had a very strong premonition that as long as he could consume the fruit from this ancient tree, his cultivation would definitely advance by leaps and bounds, and it was even possible that he could directly break through to the Void Refinement stage.
Although he was very tempted, Jiang Che did not dare to make too many moves.
As soon as Jiang Che stepped into this area, he felt a vast and boundless aura, like that of a true god descending upon the world, locking onto him and observing his every move.
Even though it was just a wisp of a remnant soul, it still put Jiang Che under immense pressure, making him feel as insignificant as a drop in the ocean facing a vast expanse of water. This feeling was even stronger than when he faced the Empress's oppressive aura.
It's hard to imagine what kind of supreme realm this Demon God Lord had cultivated to in ancient times, given that even a mere wisp of remnant soul could possess such terrifying power.
Since the other party guided me to set foot in this region, could it be that they have already recognized me and want to pass on their opportunities to me?
Just as Jiang Che was lost in thought, a clear, melodious, and slightly weak voice suddenly rang in his mind.
"Young one, you are the first human to set foot in this space in the last hundred thousand years..."
"Your body is stained with the blood of many demons..."
Although Jiang Che had completely concealed his murderous aura, he couldn't escape her perception at all.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Che became secretly wary and did not respond, continuing to listen to the voices echoing in his mind.
Although he could completely conceal his bloodthirsty aura with special concealment techniques, making it difficult for others to see through him, his disguise was completely inadequate in front of this unknown ancient deity.
"Don't be nervous... I have no intention of blaming you at all..."
"I am a descendant of the phoenix, an auspicious divine beast, unlike those low-level demonic beasts that only know how to kill..."
"Since you were able to enter this inheritance space as a human, you must possess immense fortune and unparalleled luck..."
"Since you've come here by chance, it means you are the one destined for us..."
"Young one, if you grant me just one request, I will bestow upon you all the inheritances of the Phoenix Clan..."
"May I ask what your requirements are, senior?"
Jiang Che's heart stirred, and he cupped his hands in a gesture of respect and asked aloud.
Jiang Che really didn't expect that the one who summoned and guided him here was the ancient True Phoenix that he had been longing for all along.
Since the other party has spoken up, it means that this matter is entirely negotiable, and I have a real chance to obtain the Phoenix Clan's divine power inheritance.
“I have an old friend who has been suppressed by the gods of the upside-down heavens in the deep sea of the Sun and Moon Tower in the far north of the Northern Wilderness.”
"If you promise me that you can go to the Sun and Moon Tower to rescue my old friend after you get out, and make a vow to the Heavenly Dao, I will give you all the inherited divine powers of the Phoenix Clan."
"The Sun and Moon Tower in the far north of the Northern Wilderness..."
After hearing the request made by the True Phoenix, Jiang Che frowned slightly, seemingly lost in thought.
The ancient deity suppressed by the Sun and Moon Tower in the far north of the Northern Wilderness is only one person, Chang'e, who also belongs to the lunar race.
Jiang Che also knew something about the background story of Chang'e.
Chang'e was born into an ancient family of cultivators. She was the daughter of the clan leader, the little princess of the entire clan, and also the inheritor of the abilities of the Moonlight Point. She showed extraordinary talent from a young age.
Because her family had secretly awakened the demon beasts, the gods punished them, and Chang'e's family was massacred, with no one surviving.
Chang'e herself was dragged onto the Sun and Moon Tower to be executed. During the execution, Hou Yi, the priest in charge, missed his shot and hit the jade pendant on Chang'e's chest. Chang'e was thus spared and fell into the deep sea below the Sun and Moon Tower.
As she lay dying, the moonlight poured a tremendous amount of energy into her.
After receiving the baptism of moonlight, Chang'e fell into a deep sleep. The power of the moonlight transformed into the Jade Rabbit to accompany her, and she was suppressed by the ancient gods in the depths of the North Sea.
Jiang Che had no idea what level of cultivation Chang'e had reached after being reborn and undergoing an ultimate transformation.
But since it was personally suppressed by an ancient true god, the seal must not be easy to break.
I am only a cultivator in the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, so how could I possibly break the seal of an ancient true god?
Upon realizing this, Jiang Che pondered for a moment before slowly speaking.
“Senior, it’s not that I’m unwilling to agree to your request, but rather that my abilities are limited and my cultivation is insufficient to break the seal left by the gods…”
"It doesn't matter..."
"If you agree to this request, I will naturally have a way to help you..."
"I can bestow upon you a supreme treasure of heaven and earth to help you break the true god's seal on the Sun and Moon Tower..."
The voice of the lingering remnant of the True Phoenix continued to echo in Jiang Che's mind, sounding exceptionally confident.
If it weren't for the fact that a wisp of her remnant spirit was trapped in this inheritance space and unable to leave, she would have gone there herself long ago. Why would she need to make an exchange with a mere human cultivator?
"Once you have received my inheritance, I will vanish from this space, and this Sacred Tree of Creation will also be yours..."
"You may not be aware of the effects of this sacred tree. With your current cultivation level, consuming a Creation Sacred Fruit would allow you to smoothly break through to the Void Refinement stage..."
"Over the past 100,000 years, the sacred tree has borne countless fruits, more than enough for you to cultivate a force, and it is also an indispensable material for refining immortal pills..."
· ·····Requesting flowers· ··
Seeing that Jiang Che was still hesitating, Zhenhuang Canneng continued to increase her stakes, explaining to Jiang Che without the slightest impatience.
Her lingering resentment has existed in this inheritance space for 100,000 years. She finally found a human who met the requirements, so she was naturally unwilling to give up easily.
If Jiang Che doesn't agree, and another 100,000 years pass, her divine sense will likely disappear completely from this inheritance space, and rescuing her old friend will become nothing but empty talk.
