Background / History

Empress Nuwa created the Human Race in the image of Pangu. Jiang He was her first successful creation, followed by Yue and 1,200 hand-sculpted innate humans. Nuwa subsequently named the race Ren and appointed Jiang He as its Clan Leader. Creation of humanity granted Nuwa immense merit and enabled her to attain Sagehood. 1 2

The race began with unusually high innate cultivation but lacked practical knowledge, cultivation techniques, and a means of survival. Jiang He led the early humans in hunting, making clothing, building shelters, and using fire; these foundational acts repeatedly earned merit. Nuwa protected their territory by barring beings above the Earth Immortal realm from entering for ten thousand years. 2 20

Jiang He established human ethics, surnames, the Human Calendar, and the Human Day Festival. He also spread the Basic Martial Arts Method, later refining it into the Martial Codex, a cultivation system reaching the Late Profound Immortal realm. Luo Shui City became the race's earliest major city and educational center. 4

During Jiang He's 1,300-year absence in Chaos, the Human Race expanded from roughly five million people to more than one hundred million, building hundreds of cities and developing systematic schools and academies. 5

After ten thousand years, the race had developed Rune Technology, communication networks, widespread trade, and organized exploration across the Eastern Continent. Its rapid growth made it a subject of concern for the Demon Race and other Primordial factions. 6 14

Following its first large-scale external war, the Human Race emerged as a recognized military power. Jiang He later reduced its dependence on conventional technology after concluding that it hindered the race's natural affinity for cultivation and the Great Dao. 29 33

Society and Development

Governance

• Clan Leader — Jiang He originally stood at the top of the Human Race's governing structure. 7
• Three Departments and Six Ministries — Administrative structure established beneath the Clan Leader. 7
• Ministry of War — Managed logistics and officer promotions. 7
• Military Department — Directed warfare. 7
• Elder Hall — Composed of Late Profound Immortal cultivators and above; elders focused on cultivation and teaching martial experience. 7

Technology and Communication

• The Red Dust Pearl split into Sub-Pearls housed in Precious Towers across Human cities, enabling rapid long-distance communication. 6
• Communication Rings gave citizens access to Red Dust Pearl information according to their permissions; later versions connected scattered human communities and enabled calls for aid. 14 33
• Rune Technology produced weapons, talismans, elixirs, defensive artifacts, and related tools suited to the Primordial World. 14 34
• Conventional technological weapons were largely abandoned as a primary development path, though Trade City retained them and became the most technologically styled Human settlement. 33 48
• Teleportation arrays connected cities such as Luo Shui City, Tianyuan City, Trade City, and Zhenhuang City, reducing journeys to the northern frontier from half a year to minutes. 52

Innate Traits

The Human Race differs from the Demon and Witch races through its broad potential for Law cultivation. Its members may be born with affinities for the Five Elements, Wind, Thunder, Great Yin, physical strength, or exceptional comprehension. 2 33 98

• The first 1,200 humans naturally possessed Five Elements power. 2
• Later humans typically began with one elemental power and cultivated additional abilities afterward. 2
• Some infants are born able to sense spiritual energy, wield great physical strength, or rapidly comprehend the Great Dao. 33

Major Forces

Doctrine and Equipment

• Human frontline troops wielded battle sabers and great axes while wearing rune-inscribed heavy armor; middle and rear formations used elemental Law techniques for mass attacks and battlefield control. 98

Territories and Settlements

• Luo Shui City — Holy City, early political center, and location of the Human Race's sacred Nuwa Hall. 4 50

Relationships

• Anti-Demon Alliance — Declined the Human Race's formal membership but purchased Human weapons and pills at cost price. 19
• Heavenly Court — Relations deteriorated under the Jade Emperor due to perceived favoritism toward other races, though the court later sought to avoid direct conflict with humanity. 75 79

Major Reforms

Jiang He issued a major reform decree after deciding the Human Race needed greater independence rather than continued centralized control. 50

• Luo Shui City became the Holy City and Quasi-Sage duty station.
• Humans gained freedom to cultivate and settle beyond established territory.
• Civilian forces could establish academies, sects, or even nations after reporting to the Holy City.
• The Four Great Legions and Luo Shui City Imperial Guard were reorganized into the Protector Guard.
• The hundred core cities remained under Holy City command and academy garrison rotations.
• External Human forces could establish Red Dust Pearl communication structures. 50

Later History

The rise of Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang accelerated tribal consolidation and territorial expansion: Emperor Yan emphasized enlightenment and spirit-field cultivation, while Emperor Huang expanded through warfare and alliances. 62

The Dragon and Phoenix Clans' return as Human totems caused the Human Race's fortune to surge, bringing auspicious signs, spiritual materials, treasures, and increased opportunities for cultivators. 63 64

Da Yu later unified scattered tribes in Nanzhan Buzhou after controlling catastrophic floods, distributing land, opening spirit fields, and building safe cities. With approval from the Human Ancestral Land and Jiang He, he established the Xia Dynasty, the first Human imperial dynasty. 73

During the Holy War against the Myriad Worlds, the Human Race reinforced the Demon and Witch races at Sky Splitting City. Its elite troops and Law-based warfare helped turn the battle, while Jiang He secured the Nature Divine System world from Jehovah. 97 99
