Racial upgrades

There are a myriad of benefits to upgrading your race in the multiverse including longevity and greater attribute caps but the most important reason is it being a requirement to upgrade your class. **Chapter 74**

Some species were born at E-grade race or even higher, and many had naturally higher stats. **Book 2, Page 80**

## Longevity

### E-Grade race

* 300-500 years
* He would gain it back many times over when he reached D-grade Race, but it was still pretty disconcerting to see, considering his life span should be over five hundred years by this point. **Book 6, Chapter 5**
* The difference between these normal citizens was that the ones with money and a decent constitution could evolve their Race and live for 3 to 500 years. **Chapter 858**

### D-Grade race

* Even if that was the case, it wasn’t the end of the world, as long as he reached D-grade and restocked on a few millennia of additional life span. **Book 6, Chapter 12**
* Creating an Early-quality core, and upgrading it to middle and high each provide 10,000 years of longevity.
	+ Each breakthrough before then would also add roughly ten thousand years of lifespan, far more than any longevity treasures could provide. **Chapter 969**

### C-Grade race

* A million years was approaching the limit of a Monarch, from what she [*Thea*] had gathered, unless the Monarch was a temporal cultivator or had found some special treasures to prolong their life even further. **Book 7, Page 615**

## Attribute Caps

Attribute caps vary between races the attributes shown being those exclusive to humans or humanoids

### D grade race

* 40,000-50,000 per attribute
* The attribute limits of having a D-grade race were between 40,000 and 50,000, depending on your body's potential. **Chapter 976**

## Upgrading race

Race can be upgraded by consuming treasures like the Fruit of Ascension, consuming racial upgrade pills, taking Medicinal Baths and rotating your Cultivation Manual. When upgrading your race an oily brown foul smelling substance is released from your skin (**Chapter 496**) but this has only been observed in E grade since Zac consumed the Fruit of Ascension to upgrade from F to E. Zac also expelled this oily brown substance when he opened his first hidden node although in that case he spat it out.

According to him, it wasn’t any easier getting a Mid-grade Fragment than pushing your Race grade to D while still having a F-grade class. **Book 5, Chapter 14**

Race-boosting pills weren't a thing in the D-grade since one's race was connected to one's Cultivator's Core at that stage. Every time you upgraded your core, your longevity and attribute cap would increase. Finally, when you perfected your core, you'd officially reach C-grade race. **Chapter 854**

## Effects of upgrading your race

### E grade

* "He wasn’t really stronger or more agile, but rather had greater control of his body. Normally he would think that it was due to increased Dexterity, but the change was too large that just a few extra points from his new title couldn’t cover it. He guessed instead that it was another advantage of being an evolved human." **Chapter 64**
* Minor upgrades to your appearance **Chapter 70**

### D grade

* **Pathways**
	+ It was very minute, like a thin string having been swapped out by a slightly thicker string, but it was definitely there. Pathways, including his skill fractals, had been somewhat widened. But even such a minute increase had allowed Cosmic Energy to more freely flow through the body. **Chapter 640**
	+ The thicker pathways might rather simply be a natural result of pushing his Race to D-Grade. After all, the D-Grade was where you gained a massive pool of Cosmic Energy from your Cultivator’s Core, and one’s pathways needed to be able to endure those volumes. **Chapter 641**
* Minor appearance upgrade of a lesser degree than that between F and E grade **Chapter 646**
