Space-time affinity
The Heavenly Race is born with control over space and the Way of Time, possessing the greatest natural talent for time and space among the Eight Cosmic Super Races. 381
- Their wings represent space, while their halo represents time. 381
- High-level members can perform extremely rapid spatial movement and employ advanced Space-Time Great Paths. 696
- Their superiority in space-time makes retreating Heavenly Race units difficult to pursue in open terrain. 884 904
Heavenly Wheel
The Heavenly Wheel is the Heavenly Race's highest-grade growth-type bloodline and is ordinarily exclusive to members born on Heaven-Bearing Star. 708 802
- A Heavenly Wheel can absorb the core of an innate high-dimensional lifeform or certain special acquired Sacred Cores once its bearer reaches a life-level limit. 708
- Each successful fusion can create a new pair of wings and convert traits, talents, or Great Path comprehension from the absorbed core into usable abilities. 708 802
- Heavenly Wheel bearers can gain power and Heavenly Dao insights directly through Sacred Core fusion, making them the race's foremost geniuses. 780
- Not every Heavenly Race member possesses a Heavenly Wheel; the proportion is simply higher on Heaven-Bearing Star. 878
Society
Bloodline hierarchy
Heavenly Race society operates as a strict, pyramid-shaped bloodline hierarchy. A member's lineage rank determines social position, responsibilities, resources, and access to information. 715
| Rank / class | Position and privileges |
|---|---|
| Lower-Class Heaven Race | Residents of the Huangyou Domain; advancement through selection into Shenyou Realm is their primary legitimate route upward. 710 715 |
| Sixth-Class Heaven Race | Lowest documented certificate rank; access is limited to corresponding cultivation methods, resources, and Virtual Spirit World information. 715 |
| Upper-Class Heaven Race | Backbone of the race, able to manage lower-ranking members internally and fight externally in the Hongmeng Cosmic Sea. 734 |
| First-Class Heaven Race | May occasionally leave the Ancestral Star; normally associated with the strength of an Eight-Winged Celestial Venerable. 734 777 |
| Special-Class Heaven Race | Privileged lineage rank with extensive Divine Hall exchange rights and access to restricted information; normally gained through direct inheritance, immense Heavenly Merit, special merit, or supreme-level advancement. 918 920 |
- Purebloods look down on mixed-bloods, while Original Chaos Star natives look down on members from massive Chaotic Worlds. 710
- Lower-ranking Heavenly Race members are referred to as “commoners,” while the race also subjugates other peoples as “Extra-Heaven Races.” 706 709
- The Heaven Lineage Certificate functions as identification, currency access, social network, bloodline record, and key to the Virtual Spirit World. 715
Ancestral Star
The Ancestral Star is divided into five divine kingdoms centered on the worship of five deities. 710
- Youzu Realm — Upper realm inhabited by palace nobles and members of the highest status. 710
- Shenyou Realm — Middle realm primarily occupied by military personnel responsible for maintaining order below Youzu Realm. 710
- Huangyou Domain — Lower realm inhabited by commoners. 710
- The Ancestral Star is difficult to enter and leave; ordinary Shenyou Realm members generally depart only for special missions or war with the Dark Race. 710
Cultivation systems
The Heavenly Race employs several cultivation systems rather than a single universal path. 707
- Divine Heavenly Dao system — Used by Ancestral Star guardian forces; users can invoke descending holy light to strengthen themselves. 707
- Great Path Comprehension system — The most widespread system among Time-Space Heavenly Prison inspectors. 707
- Heavenly Wheel Wings Heavenly Dao system — A rarer system reserved for Heavenly Wheel bloodline users. 707
- Divine temple baptism — Members undergo an initial baptism during their Coming-of-Age Ceremony and a second upon becoming a High-Dimensional Master, receiving divine power and broad enhancement. 919
Military
The Heavenly Race fields highly organized Royal Legions, King Legions, Battle Legions, and Heavenly Court Warriors. Its forces greatly outnumber humanity's High-Dimensional Masters. 780
- Heaven-Bearing Star — The racial foundation responsible for nurturing Heavenly Race experts and directing development. 1035
- Ancestral Star — Responsible for campaigns in the Hongmeng Cosmic Sea and the High-Dimensional Battlefield. 1035

History
Ancient War of the Gods
The Heavenly Race's temple records describe the Source Race as the former ruler of the Source Universe and portray the Heavenly Race, Dark Race, Spirit Race, and Force Race as having united against it. The records claim that the Source Race's defeat transformed the Source Universe into the High-Dimensional Universe. 920 964
Afterward, the four high-dimensional races turned on one another. The Spirit Race became a vassal of the Heavenly Race, while the Dark Race allied with the Force Race; the ensuing conflict destroyed Genesis Star, Chi God Star, and Element Star, creating the three realms of the High-Dimensional Battlefield. 920
The temple account is disputed by other information, and Wang Ye concluded that the Heavenly Race and Dark Race may have betrayed the Spirit Race and Force Race before dividing control of the High-Dimensional Universe between themselves. 920 964
Source Universe dominance
For a long period, the Heavenly Race and Dark Race stood as the two dominant powers of the High-Dimensional Universe. The Heavenly Race held a major advantage in overall numbers, resources, space-time attainments, inheritances, and upper-level combat power. 780 1141
Their position was reinforced by their vassal relationship with the Golden Winged God Race. In exchange for protection and exemption from territory-management fees, the Heavenly Race was required to deploy powerhouses for the Golden Winged God Race's wars. 1103
Decline
The collapse of the Golden Winged God Race's position in the Great Bliss Divine Domain removed the protection the Heavenly Race had relied upon and left its future uncertain. 1136
- The Heavenly Race suffered a major defeat when the Force Race intervened against it during the Low-Dimensional Races War. 1027
- At Nether Dark Star, the Human Race, Spirit Race, Force Race, and Dark Race ambushed the Heavenly Race Army; God Child Ers was killed, along with ten Universe's Strongest and thirty-six supreme beings. 1162 1163 1164
- On Heaven-Bearing Star, God Child Luo Taluo and God Daughter Luo Qingyin were captured and killed, further shattering the race's dominance. 1168
- Following these defeats, Tian Yu Mo rose to power and took control of the Heavenly Race. 1175
Relationships
- Golden Winged God Race — Patron race; the Heavenly Race serves as its vassal and supplies combatants for its wars. 1049 1103
- Dark Race — Longstanding rival and the other dominant power of the Source Universe; their competition shaped the High-Dimensional Battlefield and later escalated into open conflict. 780 878 1168
- Spirit Race — Former vassal and bitter enemy; the Heavenly Race's role in the Spirit Race's near-extinction is strongly implied. 920
- Force Race — Historical enemy whose intervention dealt the Heavenly Race a crushing battlefield defeat. 1027
- Devil Race — A subordinate-aligned race frequently pressured and punished by Heavenly Race legions, including the annihilation of the Asura Devil Race. 860 924
- Human Race — Initially treated as a lower power to be restrained; humanity later became a central force in the alliance that broke Heavenly Race dominance. 940 1162 1163
