Background
According to Chaos, the Undying Race were created by an ancient mighty being using innate fertile soil. Though originally regarded as flawed creations, they developed into a race possessing extraordinary devouring, speed, and survival abilities 1346.
In ancient times, they waged war against the Hundred Ancient Races. The coalition eventually defeated them, but the victory cost most of its powerhouses and annihilated numerous races. The Undying Race were not exterminated; the majority were killed or sealed, while survivors spent countless years recovering their strength 1346 1347.
Their reemergence is first confirmed around Tianyuan Star, where Bi Fan identifies the local “alien creatures” as members of the Undying Race. At that point, their force includes tens of thousands of Ten Earths Golden Immortals and more than two hundred Destiny Immortal Kings, with their numbers continuing to grow through devouring 1350.
Appearance
Undying Race members have no fixed physical form. Their bodies resemble masses of wriggling mud that constantly alter shape; larger bodies generally possess stronger auras 1346.
- They have no eyes or recognizable facial features.
- They perceive their surroundings and communicate entirely through Spiritual Sense.
- They may transform into ferocious forms while pursuing enemies.
- Some subdued members adopt human forms to avoid drawing attention 1346 1354 1374.
Abilities & Skills
Undying Body
Their lack of a conventional body makes them exceptionally difficult to kill.
- If their mud-like body is destroyed, they can rapidly reconstruct it as long as even a wisp of Spiritual Sense remains 1346.
- Their vitality must be fully exhausted or extinguished to kill them permanently 1349 1369.
- Destiny Law can directly annihilate them; Destruction Law can also kill them when cultivated to the Great Perfection of Nine-Nine-One-Cycle 1369.
- Their Spiritual Sense is exceptionally powerful and cannot be effectively countered through Spiritual Sense attacks alone 1346.
Devouring and Evolution
Devouring is the foundation of the race's destructive power and growth.
- They consume all energy-bearing treasures and living beings; they do not use equipment 1348.
- They can devour members of their own race, cultivators, and Divine Artifacts to increase their cultivation 1354 1665.
- Devouring a Destiny Immortal King can allow a peak Ten Earths Golden Immortal member to evolve directly into a Destiny Immortal King, usually without Tribulation Crossing 1354.
- Their energy contains vitality known as undying energy, which can strengthen and even induce evolution in those capable of refining it 1395.
- Their advance depends primarily on sufficient energy rather than conventional cultivation bottlenecks 1376.
Blood Sacrifice
The race can sacrifice large numbers of its own members to concentrate power into a select few.
- The ritual rapidly raises the cultivation of the survivors 1377.
- During one Blood Sacrifice, the collapse of a protective shield kills half the participating members and raises the remaining force to more than three hundred Destiny Immortal Kings 1380.
- Another sacrifice reduces nearly two thousand members to six surviving Undying Race experts, each empowered by thousands of strands of Primordial Violet Qi 1400.
- Blood Sacrifice can create combatants above the Destiny Immortal King level and eventually produce top Primordial Saint Venerables 1377 1531.
Blood Explosion
A desperate retreat technique used when members are unable to escape through ordinary means.
- Creates a destructive explosion that hinders pursuers.
- Consumes substantial energy and carries serious side effects.
- Is generally reserved for life-threatening situations 1532 1612.
Speed and Combat Prowess
Undying Race members possess rapid movement and combat power above that of most same-level cultivators.
- Their Primordial Divine Venerable-level members are noted as stronger than other races at the same realm 1497.
- They are considered individually among the strongest combatants of the races encountered in the Primordial Imperial Universe 1614.
- Their resilience and ability to grow stronger during battle make prolonged warfare especially dangerous 1607.
