“In the future, the more people, the better, and that’s why we at the Scientific Academy of China will take the lead in this biosphere program. We hope that all countries will invest in manpower and material resources so we’re able to relaunch the biosphere research, and truly achieve the artificial biosphere. With that, more alien colonies will be opened up in the future.”

At the World Scientific Research Conference that was recently held, all scientists in China proposed the “Relaunch Biosphere Program” to the other countries, and instantly became the headlines of major news websites.

“We Indians have long known about this. After all, we’re soon to be the country with the largest population.” The Indians did not even spare a glance at the news.

Unlike China, not only did they have a rapid growth in population, they were mostly young people whereas China was just an aging society.

However, other countries had different views.

“Are they asking us to increase our population? Well, that’s too bad. Nobody ever wanted kids in the first place, especially now they’re so obsessed with cultivating, it’s even more unlikely that they’re willing to raise children. Now, as long as one practices hard, one might even live forever, so who’d care about having children?”

Negative comments were all over many websites.

Although negative, the fact was still indisputable.

The fact was that ever since entering the Era of Vitality two years ago, there had been a drastic decline in the rate fertility, especially for young people, where the wish to give birth had dropped to an extremely terrible stage.

If one thought about it, it actually made sense, especially for those who had experienced it. One would not have any leisure time at all for the first five years, and it would even be tough for one to invest in one’s normal work, let alone the long period of time taken up and the concentration needed for one’s cultivation.

The path as a cultivator asked greatly of one to cleanse one’s soul and limit one’s desires, to cut off all roots and relationships, and to become a monk. It was not unreasonable, nor was it inhumane, but they were clear that there too many ways of the world that would only take up their time to cultivate, which would then cause them to be easily distracted. When one cultivated, it was easy for one to lose oneself in it.

As for the Era of Vitality, the ability to cultivate and to what extent could one cultivate to would directly affect one’s status, safety, and social wealth.

In particular was the recent emergence of the Magical Energy Bank, which had given many people a new path to wealth. As long as one spent more time and cultivate at some of the mountainous areas that had an abundance of vitality, one could easily make a big load of money by selling them at the bank.

The rich were like those tyrants in games. They were generous in spending tens of millions to buy huge amounts of magic so they could cultivate quickly.

The elder ones, especially, who originally intended to leave their wealth to their children, now had a new way out – buying pills, magic, and talismans, to extend their lives.

All these had accelerated the flow of wealth between the upper and lower levels of society in a disguised form, avoiding the fact that wealth was concentrated in the hands of ten percent of people, as before.

For the rich and wealthy of the new era, ordinary wealth was just their props to enhance the realm of cultivation, so there was no need to store a lot of it. As long as it was above the cultivation realm, wealth was something that could be acquired easily. As long as they could live for a couple more years, the wealth earned would increase by hundreds.

In this context, young people were willing to spend more time on cultivating to improve their social status, make money, and even pursue an uncertain longer life, rather than waste time on having children.

Whether it was China, Europe or America, the fertility rate of the population had become extremely low. The poor were not willing to have more children as well and that was because they could rely on cultivation to become rich…

However, the Indians were an exception because they had their gods…

In the words of their gods, they should have more children and plant fewer trees so they could continue to live.

Still, using population to conquer Earth was indeed a great idea.

Even for someone as strong as Vigilante A, one would still not be able to impose interference… Justice would allow him to be ever triumphant, but it may shackle him down as well.

If it was an evil spirit, it would not have shackles as such. No matter how many one gave birth to, it would break into dust with just one slap in the face.

At the Truth Department, a secret conference was being held.

Ren Ruofeng had already known long ago through Qiao Anping and the others, that the four great beings were ready to launch the route to Mars and develop Mars in order to increase the population.

Whether it was the River God of the Sky River, Bodhissatva Spirit King, Tianjing Fawang, or the Venerable Dragon God, they all were hoping for a flourishing population.

The first three were gods of righteousness, whereas the latter was the god of punishment. All of them hoped for a bigger population as that was the root of their strength.

However, now they had to solve the problem of the declining fertility rate…

“In the past, this problem may have been difficult to solve. Even if there were the so-called cloning techniques and artificial uteruses, there’d still be the ethical problems so it might not be accepted by the public. Once suggested to the public, we’ll obviously be on their bad side, but today, everything’s different,” Ren Ruofeng then began to explain his own solution.

“Oldman Ren, stop beating around the bush and get to the point,” the other powerhouses exclaimed unhappily.

They had just gone through an arcane realm trial and their capable underlings had suffered severe losses, so they were in an exceptionally bad mood.

Fortunately, the core had no casualties, so it was still a blessing in misfortune.

In addition to Qiao Anping’s comprehension of “Boundary of No Killing”, they had only very few gains whereas the tragic deaths were numerous. Elites who had been trained hard for 20 years had lost their lives in just one day.

This made them truly understand that in this kind of match between the mighty beings, they were like soldiers in the opponent’s territory where they could only advance. If there was a “car” on the road, they could still survive fruitfully, but once the “car” was gone, they could be defeated anytime.

For them to gain benefits from these mighty beings was extremely risky and difficult, and that was because the righteous gods were the only mighty beings who were able to enter. They were friendly with the other party, and that was why loss only came from the power of Heaven and Earth.

If they were to get on with those evil gods the next time, would the entire army get wiped out?

“Alright, I’m just going to say it. I heard that the Venerable Dragon God had already succeeded the Convergence of Paths with the Land of Sanguinity whereas the River of Blood at that arcane realm is able to help the souls coagulate flesh and blood. Since it’s able to coagulate flesh and blood, isn’t it possible that it can just create humans? If we make good use of this, we can actually use the River of Blood, the river that represents massacres, and transform it into the source of life – ‘the Mother River’, Ren Ruofeng suggested with a smile.

“Hmm… Who do you want to drink the water there then?” Hong Yunjiao suddenly asked.

“Uh, I’m just making an analogy. In fact, nobody actually needs to drink the water there. All we need to do is send someone there to look after the newborns,” Ren Ruofeng responded confidently.

“Oh, I see, you’re just trying to be mysterious again. However, I just want you to keep something in mind. If you’re really going through with this, will it cause any hidden dangers? The River of Blood producing humans and humans who procreate naturally will have a great difference, won’t they? Will the people criticize this?” Principal Xu raised an important question.

He was the Principal of the Sky Institute and the members who died this time were mostly his disciples and pupils.

Therefore, he was very hostile to the River of Blood. After all, it was the source of everything that happened.

“There’s no need to worry about this issue. If we use technology to create humans, it’ll definitely attract a lot of criticism and China’s image will inevitably be greatly damaged. However, on the other hand, if mythological techniques are used to create humans, not only would there not be any negative critiques, the humans created by the River of Blood might even be treated as gods. Remember in many of the myths where the mother gets pregnant without a partner would be drowned. However, if it was a gift from heaven, the child would be a god,” Ren Ruofeng said boldly.

The powerhouses nodded in agreement after hearing his words. The number one Think Tank was indeed different, being able to estimate people’s feeling this accurate.

Was it not?

If one was told that his wife was half a year pregnant after you have been on a business trip for a year, one would definitely be furious and find out who the adulterer was.

However, if one was told by a god that one would be gifted a child by God, any ordinary person would be ecstatic, and the mother’s honor would increase as the child’s value rises.
