Background / History

The Monster Race is an ancient Core Lands power whose branches survived the great melee that erased many older races. Alongside the Kannavia Race and Banmu Race, it endured from that era into the present cosmic order. 598

Following the Blood Seed War, race and bloodline became the dominant basis of interstellar politics. The Monster Race was among the sixteen recognized strongest races to hold the main territories of the Core Lands. 453

It is regarded as a peak race alongside humanity, supported by its strongest beings: the Primal Ancestor and the Dream Demon Ancestor. The Primal Ancestor has been suppressed, while Dream Demon Ancestor remains an active strategic leader. 453 674

The race controls extensive territory west of humanity, making that direction particularly difficult for human expansion. Its territory includes the Bigu Secret Realm, widely recognized as Monster Race home turf. 402 602

Society and Culture

The Monster Race is not a uniform species. Its branches often have so little in common beyond being flesh-and-blood lifeforms that they may appear unrelated, producing a culture marked by strong bloodline consciousness and internal rivalry. 419 421

• It is described as more primitive and savage than human society, with an intense worship of strength. 421
• Bone ornaments and tattoo culture are favored decorations, reflecting a tradition of violent and primitive worship. 421
• Large physiques and disdain for clothing shaped its distinctive architecture. 421
• Its public knowledge is maintained through open “sea of books” repositories rather than a human-style Virtual Universe; advanced knowledge and secret methods remain privately controlled. 421
• Mixed-blood Monster Race individuals are difficult to conceive and are widely regarded as signs of misfortune or decay; many are killed at birth or forced into weak communities outside Monster Race territory. 421
• Internal friction is severe. Contradictions between branches can exceed those between humans and the Machine Race, weakening the race’s ability to act as a unified whole. 665 667

Abilities and Combat Characteristics

• Royal branches are difficult to kill because of their innate talents, abundant treasures, and powerful divine bodies. 407
• Larger bodies provide a major advantage upon becoming Immortal Gods, as the one-time conversion into an Immortal divine body draws vast energy from the universe’s origin. 414

Natural-Weapon Combat

Monster Race combatants commonly turn their biological advantages into weapons rather than relying on separate armaments. 425

• Fire-Dazzle Horned Lizards use their horns as weapons. 425
• Light Apes excel in direct combat. 425
• Space-time Nightmare Beasts favor claw attacks. 425

• Universe-level and Domain Lord-level powerhouses oversee even low-level events, while Monster Race Kings and Universe Venerables may attend the highest-level competitions. 665

Military Strength and Defenses

The Monster Race possesses slightly fewer Immortals than humanity, but maintains several thousand to nearly ten thousand King-level Immortals. Its Sky Wolf alliance contains only a small number of King Peak Immortals. 667
