Power Progression
| Stage / Realm / Level | Chapter | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Weak postnatal race | 2 | Its strongest early members, the Three Human Ancestors, were Golden Immortals; the race was regarded as weak even by Primordial Era standards. 2 |

| Collective cultivation era | 479, 482 | Suirenshi distributed cultivation “Divine Books” throughout the race; Body Strengthening Gymnastics became a race-wide practice and dramatically increased its Destiny/Fortune. 479 482 |
| Enhanced physiques and Primordial Spirit power | 514, 517 | Human cultivators developed bodies comparable to same-level Witch Clan members; a True Immortal broke a Low-grade Innate Supreme Treasure barehanded, while another moved a mountain with telekinesis. 514 515 516 517 |

Background
The Human Race was created by Nuwa and initially survived as one of the weakest peoples in the Primordial Era. Its early population lived around Shouyang Mountain, where stronger races routinely oppressed it. The Demon Clan eventually began hunting humans as food, believing human flesh could improve cultivation. 1 14
Despite its vulnerability, the race repeatedly chose collective survival over submission. When the Demon Clan threatened to seize a million people, elderly, disabled, and frightened humans volunteered themselves to preserve others, especially the young. 15
Chen Sheng's prediction that the Human Race was destined to become the Primordial Era's protagonist transformed its perceived future. This destiny later became visible through immense surges of Human Race Destiny/Fortune, attracting both protectors and factions seeking to exploit it. 35 295
Abilities & Skills
Collective Cultivation Methods
The Human Race's rapid rise stems primarily from cultivation manuals provided by Chen Sheng and organized by the Three Human Ancestors.
Body Strengthening Gymnastics — A synchronized physical cultivation method taught across the race through direct instruction and self-learning. 479 482
Mind Turning Cultivation Method — A method for developing Primordial Spirit power. 519
Destiny/Fortune Manipulation
The collective faith, unity, and cultivation of the Human Race generate extraordinary Destiny/Fortune.
- Destiny/Fortune surged when the race expressed sincere gratitude to benefactors and Saints. 295
- Group cultivation can produce auspicious phenomena, including Golden Lotuses and descending Divine Birds. 482
- During battle, its Destiny/Fortune can manifest as a Golden Dragon and protective aura. 619 634
- It powers the Kongtong Seal; the seal grows stronger as Human Race Destiny grows. 656
Collective Formations
By performing cultivation routines in coordinated ranks, the Human Race can transform its power into large-scale defenses.
- Repeated eight-beat sequences create Spirit Ropes that weave into a Spirit Net. 619
- The Spirit Net reflected Ancestor Dragon's Dragon Tail Sweep and Primeval Phoenix's Undying Flame. 619
- The formation's effectiveness depends on the race's stamina and sustained unity; it was eventually broken during the Three Clans' extended assault. 620
Equipment / Weapons / Items
- Kongtong Seal — A seal connected to Human Race Destiny/Fortune. It can establish or depose the Human Emperor and is known as the Divine Seal of Righteousness for its power against demons and ghosts. 656
- The united Human Race used it to repel and pierce through Heavenly Punishment. 657
- Cultivation Method Divine Books — Tattered manuals discovered and distributed by Suirenshi, containing Body Strengthening Gymnastics and other cultivation methods. 479 482
- Clan Protection Formation — A defensive formation around the Human Race territory, reinforced by the Nine Sword Star Pattern Grass and possessing Saint-level defensive might. 790
Leadership and Society
The Three Human Ancestors—Suirenshi, Chaoyi Shi, and Youchaoshi—lead the race and oversee its collective cultivation. They disseminate techniques through a layered teaching system: Suirenshi learns and demonstrates the manuals, teaches the other ancestors, and the ancestors instruct their respective tribes. 481 482
Human cultivation is highly organized. Practitioners train in small formations with leaders and announcers calling synchronized exercise commands, allowing the entire race to cultivate as a unified force. 513
Repeated invasions taught the Human Race that survival requires self-reliance. It continued intensive closed-door training even during periods of peace, seeking enough strength to resist foreign races and Saints without depending solely on its protectors. 664 767
Relationships
- Nuwa — Creator and Holy Mother. Nuwa swore to protect the Human Race, restored it after Heavenly Punishment, taught it Daoist techniques, and repeatedly defied Hongjun on its behalf. 122 502 814
- Suirenshi, Chaoyi Shi, and Youchaoshi — The Three Human Ancestors and principal leaders of the race; they organize its defense, cultivation, and resistance. 2 479 767
- Chen Sheng — A reclusive human senior whose cultivation manuals transformed the race's strength, physical bodies, and Destiny/Fortune. 479 516 619
- Nine Sword Star Pattern Grass — Protector of the Human Race. It defended Shouyang Mountain, declared its protection of the race, and helped repel hostile forces. 494 623
- Tongtian Sect Master — A recurring protector who intervened against Primordial Heavenly Venerate and the Three Clans. 627 632
- Houtu and the Witch Clan — Houtu investigated the Human Race's cultivation, recognized its potential, and later supported it against Demon Clan aggression. 513 517 793
- Laozi — His preaching substantially raised Human Race cultivation and led to the establishment of the Human Teachings; he later resented other factions benefiting from Human Race Fortune. 59 483
- Zhunti and Jieyin — The Two Sages of the West preached among the Human Race in pursuit of its Destiny/Fortune, but later secretly chose to protect it because of that fortune and its powerful protector. 293 295 766
- Demon Clan — A longstanding enemy that hunted humans for food and repeatedly mobilized to annihilate the race. 14 636 787
- Ancestor Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao — Primary antagonists who regard the Human Race as a variable threatening Heavenly Dao control and repeatedly impose Heavenly Punishment to suppress or destroy it. 648 660
Story Role / Major Arcs
Early Oppression
The Human Race begins as a weak people living under constant threat from stronger Primordial factions. Demon Clan predation turns survival into an existential struggle, forcing the Three Human Ancestors to defend the race despite their limited strength. 14 15
Rise of Human Race Destiny
Laozi's preaching first raises the race's cultivation potential. Later, the preaching and good deeds of the Two Sages of the West trigger an explosive surge in Human Race Destiny/Fortune, confirming the scale of its future importance. 59 295
Cultivation Revival
Suirenshi discovers Chen Sheng's Divine Books and establishes race-wide training. The Human Race gains powerful bodies, Primordial Spirit abilities, and the capacity to turn synchronized cultivation into a collective military defense. 479 482 514 517
War Against the Three Clans
When the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin tribes attack to seize the Nine Sword Star Pattern Grass, the Human Race refuses to surrender it. Its Spirit Net repels the patriarchs' attacks, but its stamina falters in a prolonged battle until the Nine Sword Star Pattern Grass and Tongtian intervene. 617 619 620 632
Heavenly Punishment and the Human Dao
Hongjun declares the Human Race a disruptive variable and descends catastrophic Heavenly Punishment. The race suffers immense losses but unites in resistance, activates the Kongtong Seal, and reveals the Human Dao's capacity to oppose the Heavenly Dao. 647 657 660
Continued Struggle for Survival
Even after gaining a period of peace, the Human Race remains surrounded by enemies. Suirenshi orders continued closed-door cultivation in preparation for further attacks, and the race later faces another Demon Clan invasion under Di Jun. 664 767 787
