Biological Foundation and Earth Lineage
The Human Race's principal disadvantage is the comparatively weak foundation of its physical bodies. Special lifeforms and other races may possess gene multipliers of hundreds or thousands of times, allowing them to burn divine bodies for far greater explosive power in battle 130.
Human cultivators are nevertheless noted for high-level comprehension, mental fortitude, and secret techniques. The emergence of Black Warriors—rare human physiques able to break genetic shackles and fuse specially processed Beast God Blood—is therefore regarded as a major opportunity to overcome this bodily weakness 129 130.
Earth Human Race
Earth's human lineage is considered unusually valuable within the wider Human Race.
- Earth was secretly modified by an alien powerhouse hundreds of millions of years ago. Life born there receives invisible nourishment during embryonic development that improves the soul, state of mind, and ability to comprehend laws 108.
- The Human Race's leadership views Earth as a potential new powerful human branch and deliberately protects its strategic significance 130.
- The Earth lineage's soul-based advantages cannot be directly stolen through possession, unlike physically inherited bloodline traits 150.
- Earthlings can use the Soldier Armor, a Peak Treasure originally associated with the Yan God Race; its potential for mass-producing powerful World Lords makes the lineage vulnerable to exploitation as a source of war assets 141 150.
- Earth later becomes an interstellar maternity center, with birth quotas sought by powerful families so their descendants can be born with its advantages 112 224.
Governance and Society
The Human Race's upper echelons concentrate heavily on cultivating exceptional talent through institutions such as the Genius Tournament, Giant Axe Dojo, and Ganwu Dojo. Ordinary civilian affairs often receive less direct attention because of the race's immense territory and population 269.
Within the Ganwu Universe Kingdom, only the Ganwu Dojo is permitted to provide formal cultivation training. Family-run institutions may instead teach auxiliary subjects such as cosmic knowledge, alien customs, starship maintenance, treasure appraisal, and interstellar survival 30.
The race is not politically unified in practice. Individual factions and powerhouses pursue private interests, while the Dark Net enables coded, off-record transactions in rare treasures and can be used to evade Virtual Universe surveillance 209.
Civilian Protection
Tang Ping's anti-fraud proposal identifies three major internal priorities for the Human Race:
- Protecting the livelihoods, property, and cultivation opportunities of ordinary citizens.
- Removing alien spies and corrupt internal elements.
- Strengthening collective identity and resistance to external races across all 1,008 Higher Universe Kingdoms 269.
Earth-lineage security measures include identity censuses, anti-fraud and combat training, free legal consultation, and dedicated rescue teams for Earth citizens outside the Milky Way 204.
History and Development
The Human Race rose over billions of years to become one of the six peak races, establishing control over 1,008 Higher Universe Kingdoms through prolonged expansion and conflict 269 274.
Its modern position is precarious. The race directly faces the Monster Race, Zerg, and Machine Race, and a major defeat could lead to systematic extermination across its territories 274. The suppression of the Original Ancestor further weakened the race's strategic position and forced its leaders to avoid costly mistakes 213.
Earth was brought under Human Race protection before its unusual value became widely known. Its rapid production of prodigies, strong states of mind, and potential for genetic evolution have made it a central strategic asset 130 174.
The Yan God Race was formerly part of the Human Race but separated under Emperor Yan and established itself in a distant secret realm. Yan God powerhouses later appeared on Outer Battlefield campaigns against human forces 254.
Relations
- Zerg — A peak-race enemy. Zerg forces enslaved the Mengyou Empire and caused catastrophic casualties, while a Zerg Universe Master ordered the elimination of the Human Race's top must-kill targets after You Yao's death 89 162.
- Monster Race — One of the three rival peak races directly confronting Human Race territory 274.
- Machine Race — One of the three rival peak races directly confronting Human Race territory 274.
- Yan God Race — A former Human Race branch that broke away under Emperor Yan; its members later fought alongside other factions against human armies 254.
- Spirit Plant Race — Contested the Tree Abyss Secret Realm, invading it to seize Void Crystal God Tree resources and fighting Human Race Immortals 262.
- Earth Human Race — A protected and strategically important human branch with exceptional soul and state-of-mind potential 108 130.
- Nether Sea Clan — The Human Race cooperates with Lord of Nine Serenities to relocate Tang Ping's Nether Sea Clone, whose vast divine body can reduce resurrection costs for human experts 167 266.
Story Role / Major Arcs
- Protection of Earth — Human leaders recognize Earth's special nature, protect its status, and oversee its transformation into an interstellar maternity center and strategic economic asset 112 130 224.
- Support for Tang Ping — The race provides cultivation resources, safe locations for breakthroughs, divine-body expansion plans, and protective divine-power tokens due to Tang Ping's extraordinary potential 167 206 213.
- Black Warrior opportunity — Tang Ping's emergence as a Black Warrior raises hopes that human genetic limits can be overcome and potentially benefit the entire race through future secret-technique development 129 231.
- Solar System authority — The Cosmic Galaxy Bank and Human Race powerhouses enforce security around Earth and the Solar System under Tang Ping's protection 178 179.
- Tree Abyss conflict — Human Immortals enter the Tree Abyss Secret Realm to secure resources and recover technicians' remains, but suffer heavy losses in a Spirit Plant Race invasion 261 262.
- New Universe Master — Tang Ping becomes the Human Race's nineteenth Universe Master, prompting its leadership to publicize him as a new pillar rather than keep him as a hidden asset 266.
- Sword Tomb initiative — The Chaos City Lord seeks to use Tang Ping's sword qi to help top Human Race geniuses comprehend advanced secret techniques; the resulting Sword Tomb becomes a comprehension site for the race 256 257.
- Anti-fraud rectification — As Lord of Peace and Joy, Tang Ping drafts a 10,000-year cross-kingdom campaign against fraud, internal corruption, and alien infiltration 269.
