Two hundred and eighty billion!

Such a massive number can easily instill despair in anyone who hears it.

How can we fight this? Is there even a chance of fighting?

But!

Having such a rare opportunity to travel through time, and with such a powerful Golden Finger, how could I possibly give up when faced with difficulties!

The more difficult the environment, the more courageously we must forge ahead!

Moreover, the current situation is not difficult. He was forced to fake his death to escape before, but now he can launch a counterattack against his target!

"First of all, we need to stop these aristocratic Aristocratic Clan from having children, otherwise they'll be giving birth faster than they're being beaten. So why are these cultivators so prolific? Didn't the novels I read in my previous life all say that the higher one's cultivation level, the more difficult it is for them to have children?"

Yang Ning dispatched the Heavenly Emperor's Eye to investigate and study, and soon found the cause.

That setting in the novel is merely for the convenience of plot development and the protagonist's revenge.

The protagonist in the novel always stirs up hatred wherever he goes, and wiping out entire families is commonplace for him.

If a Lineage has a few hundred members, wiping them out is relatively easy. But if you investigate and find out that another family has twenty million members, what's the point of wiping them out?

Moreover, what is the situation on Taiheng's side?

The Cultivation Method of Taiheng cultivators are mostly inherited from the Dragon Clan.

Not to mention that dragons are inherently promiscuous, the dragon race has grown strong by having many children, so Cultivation Method inherited from the dragon race will naturally inherit this characteristic.

The higher a person's cultivation level, the stronger the activity of their sperm and eggs, resulting in an extremely high conception rate.

Moreover, if the mother is also a cultivator, there is virtually no possibility of miscarriage, nor is there any possibility of difficult childbirth, and the possibility of the baby dying is almost nonexistent.

This results in people from the Aristocratic Clan that cultivate immortality not only being very fertile, but also having children who are less likely to die young and who generally grow up healthy.

The country has a high conception rate, a low miscarriage rate, a low infant mortality rate, and is not lacking in resources, housing, or women.

That would definitely boost the birth rate!

How can we stop this birth rate?

Yang Ning quickly drafted a complete plan.

In his previous life, the neighboring country of his own had one of the lowest birth rates, and Yang Ning had done research on why the birth rate there was so low.

Fertility rate is the result of a combination of factors, but these factors can be summarized into just one factor.

That's an economic issue.

Young people don't have money; they can't afford to date, buy a house or a car, or provide their children with a better education.

If you can't even afford to date, have nowhere to live after marriage, and have children who won't be educated, then what's the point of getting married or having children?

Another reason is that a segment of people who cannot be defined have become wealthy.

These undefinable individuals, once they become wealthy and independent, no longer need to rely on men, and naturally, they don't need to lower themselves to marry men.

If men can't afford to get married and women are unwilling to marry, the birth rate will naturally decline.

So what Yang Ning wanted to do was very simple: keep the men among these Aristocratic Clan poor.

To make the girls from the Aristocratic Clan wealthy.

There's no need to favor one over the other; even if their assets are equal, the desired effect will still be achieved.

But this is the Cultivation World, where money is not important at all.

Even a pig, once it embarks on the path of cultivation, will never lack money!

Money on Earth, placed here, should be equivalent to cultivation level!

Therefore, what Yang Ning wants to do is to get women involved in cultivation activities, and then catch up with, or even surpass, male cultivators in terms of cultivation level!

So, why is the Cultivation World dominated by men and weaker than women?

First: The Cultivation Method in the Cultivation World are all translated by men, and all kinds of Cultivation Method are more suitable for men's physiques.

Second:.

"Benefactor, you can't write this down!" A gentle voice sounded beside Yang Ning.

Yang Ning was startled and quickly turned around, only to find that behind him stood a bald, but still handsome, white-robed monk!

"You are..." Yang Ning instantly broke out in a cold sweat. "Bao Xiang Ru Lai?"

"It is indeed this humble monk!" Bao Xiang Ru Lai, first examining the cave-like underground structure, then asking curiously, "Is this your true form, benefactor? I've been searching for you for quite some time!"

Yang Ning remained silent.

Yes or no?

He really didn't know.

He referenced Uncle Rick in this regard, where there are clones behind clones, and clones behind clones.

Aren't you good at divination and reading cause-and-effect lines?

Then I'll arrange for the chickens to be bred; the cause-and-effect relationship can only be traced this far!

You can't find another chicken unless you kill this one.

Even after he had figured out the Quark Celestial Body, he still didn't know if he was the one who had gone the furthest.

"So, you've come here for something?" Yang Ning asked.

"You have a connection with Buddhism!" Bao Xiang laughed. "Why not try joining my Buddhist order? Once you become my disciple, all your troubles will cease to be troubles!"

"Do you know what's bothering me?" Yang Ning frowned.

"I know a little about it!" Bao Xiang Ru Lai. "Aristocratic Clan monopolize resources, block knowledge, and pass it down from generation to generation. They are also incredibly powerful, making them difficult to contend with!"

"Then why would joining your Buddhist sect solve all of this?" Yang Ning asked.

The Bao Xiang Ru Lai and said, "You are a clever person, how could you not figure it out!"

"Uh..." Yang Ning was taken aback. After thinking about it carefully, it seemed that Bao Xiang Ru Lai really did have a solution.

The first problem is that there are many Aristocratic Clan, making it difficult to solve.

The Bao Xiang Ru Lai possesses a Great Karma Technique, which can uncover all those with whom a person has a karmic connection.

With this Divine Ability, you can not only kill a person, but also use their karmic connections to exterminate their entire clan of nineteen.

We'll make sure they're all wiped out, leaving no one alive!

Secondly, Aristocratic Clan are like weeds, they grow back after the spring breeze.

As long as people can still have children and power exists, Aristocratic Clan will inevitably be reborn and will never disappear because of any system or law.

After all, blood ties are always the most stable relationship in the world.

But Buddhist disciples must become monks or nuns!

If one leaves home and doesn't even have a wife, how can one have children, let alone establish Aristocratic Clan?

Of course, Yang Ning wouldn't be so easily convinced.

After all, what he needs from Buddhism, besides those Divine Ability, are only these two things; he can just borrow them.

"Master, I'm sorry, but I have no intention of becoming a monk." Yang Ning shook his head. "Besides, I'm already married, so I don't meet your criteria for accepting disciples!"

"It's merely entering my Buddhist order, not becoming a monk!" Bao Xiang Ru Lai. "Besides, what standards does Buddhism have for accepting disciples? Anyone with Buddha-nature in their heart can enter my Buddhist order!"

"Then what does it mean for the mind to possess Buddha-nature?" Yang Ning asked.

"You were able to declare war on a sect like Taiheng Sect, which even a poor monk would avoid, for the sake of a few relatives and friends. Doesn't that count as having Buddha-nature?" Baoxiang said.

"What kind of Buddha-nature is this? How do you define Buddha-nature?" Yang Ning asked curiously.

"Following your own true nature is the path to Buddhahood; this is Buddha-nature!" Baoxiang explained.

Yang Ning was taken aback. "You mean, the unity of knowledge and action?"

"Unity of knowledge and action?" Bao Xiang asked blankly, "What is the unity of knowledge and action?"

"Understanding the principles of things and putting them into practice are inseparable. Knowing a principle means putting it into action!" Yang Ning said, "For example, if I know that drinking alcohol is bad for my health, then I won't drink it. If I know that daily cultivation without interruption will lead to progress in my cultivation, then I will persevere in doing so!"

The unity of knowledge and action is a fully realized driving force for action.

This thing may seem ordinary, but it's actually a super powerful Golden Finger, just like the principle of "Heaven Rewards Diligence" and "One certificate grants permanent access to the same level."

"According to what you say, Buddha-nature can indeed be interpreted as the unity of knowledge and action!" Bao Xiang thought for a moment, and it seemed that there was indeed no difference between the two. "You truly possess Buddha-nature, and at such a young age, you have been able to comprehend such principles without a teacher!"

"This isn't something I figured out myself!" Yang Ning shook his head and said, "It was a person Wang Yangming who figured it out. He's in the Great Ming Kingdom. Do you want to go find him?"

Bao Xiang was speechless. I was attracted by your ability to manifest three thousand incarnations, each with astonishing cultivation aptitude. Did you really think I came here because you have Buddha Heart?

The concept of "Buddha Heart" is nothing more than a fabricated idea made up to facilitate the management of temples.

And

Why is it that Bao Xiang Ru Lai, a cultivator at the tenth level of the Spiritual Law Realm, with peak strength in the mortal world, have a group of people crying and begging to become my disciples wherever I go, yet I am still rejected when I try to take on a disciple?

Didn't you immediately kneel down and kowtow the moment I opened my mouth?
