Background / History

The Human Race was created by Nuwa and had existed for only several million years when its rise began. Its members generally possessed shallow roots and struggled to cultivate, but their unmatched reproductive capacity gave the race an immense population base. Suiren Shi, Youchao Shi, and Ziyi Shi preserved its earliest civilization by teaching fire, shelter, and clothing. 20 35 39

Before receiving a cultivation inheritance, humanity was scattered across the Great Wilderness and vulnerable to the Demon Race's predation. Demon forces slaughtered tribes for blood and sought to refine human blood into a weapon capable of restraining the Witch Clan's physical bodies. 33 35

Xuandu returned to the East Sea Coast as a Jie Sect Personal Disciple and proposed bringing humanity under the Jie Sect's protection. The Three Ancestors accepted his proposal, and billions of humans later became Xuandu's disciples during the Demon Race's blockade of the East Sea Coast. 35 38 39

After protecting the race from the Demon Court, Xuandu established the Martial Dao as a self-strengthening path and erected the Martial Dao Heavenly Stele as its permanent inheritance. Humanity subsequently confronted the Demon Court, secured ten thousand years to develop, and began consolidating its collective fortune and will. 51 53 102 103

As the Martial Dao developed, humanity severed its former dependence on Laozi's Human Sect and rejected Nuwa's claim to its fortune and incense offerings. Nuwa was ultimately slain after her karmic connection to the Human Race was severed, leaving the race with Xuandu as its sole acknowledged master rather than a Human Mother. 112 137 140 197

The completion of the Human Dao transformed humanity from a rising Great Wilderness race into one of the Three Dao foundations. With the Three Sovereigns and Three Ancestors ascending as Human Dao Sages, the race began an independent Human Dao era and continued expanding its Martial Dao inheritance. 356 357 585

Martial Dao and Institutions

Martial Dao

Martial Dao is humanity's dedicated cultivation path, designed for its shallow innate roots and centered on self-improvement rather than reliance on external spiritual energy. 46 51

• Uses Qi Induction, physical tempering, Blood Qi, spirit, and willpower to excavate the potential of the human body. 46 51
• Initially has an upper limit of Daluo Golden Immortal, while allowing even ordinary humans to strengthen themselves and extend their lifespans. 46
• Relies less on spiritual energy than orthodox immortal cultivation; spiritual energy serves as assistance rather than its foundation. 174
• The race's shared Martial Dao practice gathers Blood Qi, battle intent, fortune, and collective will. 103 110
• The combined insights of Martial Dao cultivators condense and strengthen the Martial Dao Law, allowing the race's collective comprehension to support Xuandu's advancement. 105 116 121
• In its later development, Martial Dao advances beyond merely comprehending laws toward recognition of the Martial Dao Great Dao, which Xuandu directly lays before the race's cultivators. 585
• The path remains reciprocal: each breakthrough by a Human Race Martial Dao cultivator deepens Xuandu's Martial Dao foundation, while his guidance broadens their route toward higher realms. 584 588

Martial Dao Heavenly Stele

The Martial Dao Heavenly Stele stands on the East Sea Coast as humanity's central inheritance and a supreme treasure of Human Race fortune. 53 155

• Provides Martial Dao inheritance to countless disciples. 85
• Suppresses the Human Ancestral Land and protects Human Race fortune from perishing. 155
• Was strengthened with seventy percent of Xuandu's Sky-Mending Merit, making its teachings clearer and cultivation easier for humanity. 246
• Resonates with the Kongtong Seal, the Three Sovereigns, the Three Ancestors, and the will of the Myriad Human Race during the Human Dao's awakening. 356
• Later gathers Human Race cultivators from across the Great Wilderness so that they may receive Xuandu's transmission of the Martial Dao Great Dao. 584 585

Chaos Bead World

The Chaos Bead World is a cultivation sanctuary reserved specifically for humanity's rise and the awakening of the Human Dao. 176 263

• Its initial restoration grants a hundredfold time flow and spiritual energy exceeding that of the outside world. 175 176
• After stabilization through the Innate Five Elements Great Formation, its laws become complete and its time flow reaches 10,000 times that of the outside world. 261
• Human elites at the True Immortal realm and above are gathered to cultivate within it. 176
• Xuandu sends 100,000 elite humans into the world with the expectation that they can eventually reach Daluo Golden Immortal. 262
• Huang Zhongli serves as a reserve resource for the cultivators within the world. 262
• The world provides the core cultivation foundation behind the later emergence of humanity's vast Daluo Golden Immortal and Primordial Unity Golden Immortal forces. 348 352

Human Dao Will and Fortune

Humanity's collective will becomes a tangible force as its Martial Dao and civilization develop. 103 137

• The race's fortune becomes unified after its confrontation with the Demon Court and feeds back into the Jie Sect through Xuandu. 103
• Its collective rejection severs Nuwa's connection to Human Race fortune and incense offerings. 137 140
• The Kongtong Seal gathers Human Dao merit and serves as a focal point for the Human Dao's awakening. 349 357
• The awakening of the Human Dao establishes balance among the Heaven, Earth, and Human Three Daos. 356 357
• The Human Dao's completion grants the race an independent Sage framework, initially producing six Human Dao Sages and later supporting a nine-sage force. 357 430

Society and Civilization

• The Three Ancestors direct humans with insufficient cultivation aptitude to strengthen their tribes through farming, sericulture, house-building, weaving, hunting, and raising children. 247
• Contributions to ordinary life are recognized as Human Race merits and recorded beneath the Martial Dao Heavenly Stele. 247
• Human settlements develop established methods for farming, building, weaving, and hunting while cultivators continue along the Martial Dao. 262
• Xuanyuan moves to end tribal fragmentation, centralize authority in Chen Capital, unify troops, and establish a single Human Race polity. 344 345
• By the period preceding the Human Dao's awakening, humanity has become the largest race in the Great Wilderness, with countless billions of members, innumerable Great Luo cultivators, and Quasi-Saints guarding its foundation. 335
• Xuanyuan defeats Chi You and completes the unification of the Human Race under Chen Capital, consolidating its destiny and political authority. 348
• Following the Human Dao's awakening, the race possesses six Human Dao Sages, tens of millions of cultivators, the Chaos Bead World, the Martial Dao Heavenly Stele, and the Kongtong Seal as pillars of its civilization. 357 367
• The Human Race's immense population remains a defining strength of Martial Dao cultivation: although many individuals begin with shallow aptitude, the number of cultivators capable of attaining Great Dao comprehension produces decisive collective progress. 585
