History
Rise under the Original Ancestor
The Human Race rose from a powerful race to a peak race under the leadership of the Original Ancestor, its first Universe Supreme Being. During his era, it was regarded as the Primal Universe's foremost force; even the Ancestral God Sect avoided provoking it. 201
The Original Ancestor was later suppressed by the Primal Universe Will, but remained a crucial safeguard for the race. During the conflict with the Five-Race Alliance, the Human Race sheltered its future geniuses, Universe Venerables, and King-level Immortals inside the Initial Universe, where the suppressed Original Ancestor could not be reached by outside enemies. 261
After the Sector Beast Catastrophe ended, Human Race powerhouses led by Giant Axe Founder and Chaos City Leader welcomed the Original Ancestor's return. He confirmed that he could advance to Void True God. 325
Talent cultivation and expansion
The Human Race maintains a systematic cultivation structure for its geniuses. Core members entering Chaos City are personally screened by Chaos City Leader for non-human souls, possession, and soul enslavement before receiving Human Race resources. 97
Its highest leadership viewed Xu Ai, Hen Ren, Raiden Shogun, Luo Feng, and Hong as unusually valuable talents, prioritizing confirmation of their Human Race identities over investigating the origins of their opportunities. 133
The race's strength accelerated after Hen Ren shared the secret techniques Disintegration and Revival, and later through the spread of multiple Ancient Civilization inheritances. 203 280
War with the Five-Race Alliance
The Monster, Zerg, Automaton, Prison, and Crystal Races formed a temporary alliance to seize Human Race territory and suppress its future development. Their decision was driven by humanity's growing number of sixth-tier combatants and Giant Axe Founder's tenth-tier deterrence. 261
Giant Axe led the Human Race Universe Masters to intercept the invasion. The war ended in a decisive Human Race victory: Dream Demon Ancestor was killed, the Automaton Race Father God and Black Universe Founder were captured, and more than one hundred enemy Universe Masters were taken prisoner. 268 271
The Automaton Race subsequently declined as an independent race. Most surviving intelligent lifeforms were taken in by Lexington and incorporated into the Human Race. 272
Era of Humanity
Following the World of Jin incident, the Anti-Human Alliance lost most of its Universe Masters. The Monster Race, Zerg Race, Prison Race, Crystal Race, and several alliances began withdrawing from core regions of the Primal Universe, leaving territory open to Human Race expansion. 298
More than eight hundred epochs later, the Human Race's inherited knowledge had produced a broad surge in power: Universe Venerables advanced, Universe Overlords became Universe Masters, and Lord of Darkness and Peng Gong Master became Universe Supreme Beings. 280
By the Primal Universe's End of World stage, the Human Race had accumulated 499 True Gods. It relocated its population into Miniature Universes alongside other major powers before the Primal Universe's destruction. 326

| Purgatory Abyss bases | Spherical space fortresses that purify chaotic energy, shelter mission participants, assign tasks, and provide escape assistance to qualified Human Race members. 127 |
| Outer-Domain Battlefield bases | High-spec military fortresses equipped with law engravings, massive mechanical cannons, energy shields, and transit networks. 145 |
Military and Cultivation Resources
Martial Artist system
The Human Race distinguishes martial artists from ordinary people through the ability to cultivate genetic energy. The HR Alliance's Quasi-Martial Artist Assessment tests punch strength, speed, and nerve reaction before candidates may attempt the voluntary Martial Artist Practical Examination. 6
The Huaxia military and the two major martial arts halls established three public rankings:
- Heaven Ranking — the world's hundred strongest martial artists.
- Earth Ranking — Warlord-level martial artists.
- Human Ranking — genius martial artists under thirty.
Ranked members receive resource support and rewards. 48
