[edit] The four celestial creatures

In The Celestial Zone 1, four Celestial Creatures are introduced, namely East Green Dragon, West White Tiger, South Red Phoenix and Northern Black Tortoise. They function partially as guardians of the Celestial Zone, and are in their own right formidable opponents, whether of the righteous or evil way. Each of the Celestial Creatures have their own special set of skills and principles, which sets them apart. Eventually, all of the guardians have to train an heir to succeed them, and ensure the continuity of the Celestial Creatures.

Originally, all of the Celestial Creatures were guardians of the righteous way, however, subsequently, three of the guardians were turned to the evil way in the setting of The Celestial Zone 1.
