Learning to play games, a 40-year-old woman achieves a remarkable turnaround.

Chapter 222 extinguished the burning flame in her heart.

Yuan Bao stood at the familiar starting position in the Hall of Profound Truth, took a deep breath, and began to circulate the "Tai Chi Revolving Wheel" ahead of schedule.

The Yin and Yang energies within the body are like two agile dragons, intertwining and merging, joyfully flowing through the meridians, building a stable and efficient energy circulation system.

Afterwards, she carefully arranged the accessories inlaid with energy crystals. The soft blue light emitted by the energy crystals blended with her own aura, further enhancing the energy shield.

At the same time, Yuan Bao repeatedly sorted out the goal of this exploration in his mind: to find a timeline that could resolve large-scale natural disaster crises in the future world.

When everything was ready, Yuan Bao touched the glowing text and, enveloped in the light of the Mystic Token, successfully stepped into the fourth-dimensional space.

Upon entering, the chaotic flow of time immediately overwhelms you, with various timelines flashing and changing like a crisscrossing torrent of light and shadow, dazzling the eye.

However, Yuan Bao quickly regained his composure thanks to the strong willpower he gained through meditation training, and his gaze firmly locked onto his target.

She followed a seemingly promising timeline and discovered an area radiating intense energy—an "energy pool" formed by the convergence of time energy.

Following his previous experience, Yuan Bao cautiously approached, extended his hands, and guided the energy from the "energy pool" into his body.

During this process, the energy crystals also responded actively, cooperating with the external energy to quickly replenish Yuan Bao's energy reserves while ensuring the purity of the energy and avoiding energy repulsion.

Her recovery pills can only sustain her for a short time after energy depletion, so she should try to use energy crystals to maintain energy stability.

As the exploration deepened, Yuan Bao encountered complex timeline bifurcation points.

Different timeline branches present drastically different dimensional landscapes: in some timeline branches, cities are flooded and people are displaced; in others, the earth is cracked and crops fail.

Faced with this complex and varied information, Yuan Bao calmly used the technique of precise control of his consciousness to focus only on clues related to the natural disaster crisis and automatically filter out other irrelevant interference.

She carefully observed the causes of the disasters, their start times, and possible countermeasures in each timeline branch.

While tracking a key timeline, Yuan Bao sensed a powerful temporal turbulence ahead, which could potentially interfere with her energy flow and even cause a large-scale energy leak.

Yuan Bao quickly adjusted the rhythm of the "Tai Chi rotation" within his body, matching the frequency of energy circulation with the fluctuation frequency of the time turbulence, using softness to overcome hardness, and skillfully neutralizing the impact of the turbulence.

At the same time, the energy crystal releases even stronger energy, stabilizing her energy shield and ensuring that energy consumption remains at a minimum while traversing the temporal turbulence.

After a long period of exploration, Yuan Bao finally found a relatively clear timeline.

In this timeline, humanity successfully mitigated natural disaster crises through advanced geological monitoring technologies and efficient ecological restoration methods developed in advance.

Yuan Bao meticulously recorded key information, including the timeline of technology development, core team members, and specific ecological restoration plans.

Thanks to the effective implementation of energy-saving strategies, Yuan Bao's energy consumption in the four-dimensional space this time was far lower than before. She was able to have enough energy to conduct in-depth and detailed research on this plane until she was sure that she had mastered all the key details. Only then did she slowly exit the four-dimensional space with a full harvest.

Just then, the system's calm, mechanical notification sounded: "Host, given your current progress in exploring the mysteries of four-dimensional space, if you continue to frequently travel and interfere with different timelines and planes, the intensity of the time backlash will increase exponentially. You..."

While our keen perception of time and space brings convenience to exploration, it also makes us increasingly vulnerable to the laws of time.

The rules of the current real world are gradually becoming incompatible with your frequent contact with fourth-dimensional space. If you wish to continue to delve deeper into the mysteries of fourth-dimensional space, you must improve your own strength as soon as possible and break free from the constraints of the rules of the real world before you can once again devote yourself fully to exploration.

Yuan Bao frowned, his expression grave as he pondered the system's warning.

Completely confused, Yuan Bao anxiously called out, "Little 9, Little 9, what does this system message mean? Does it mean I should give up on researching four-dimensional space altogether?"

Little 9 quickly searched the system and then replied seriously: "My lord, that's exactly right. I sincerely do not recommend that you continue to study four-dimensional space at this time."

Think about it, when your body travels through different timelines in four-dimensional space, its ability to withstand pressure is very limited. It's like time travel; your body has to endure tremendous pressure, and it will wear out after only a few times.

Moreover, the rules of the real world you live in do not allow you to frequently dabble in it right now.

In my opinion, you should wait until the system achieves a breakthrough, and your own abilities are greatly enhanced and you break through the limitations, before you begin exploring.

Then, Xiao 9 added: "Once the system is upgraded to level five, the upper limits of your various basic attributes will be increased."

If the Level 5 system breaks through again, the upper limits of your various basic attributes will see a significant increase.

"Oh! I see?" Yuan Bao was still somewhat unwilling and pressed on, "Then what about those advanced technologies I saw in the Hall of Profound Truths? Can't we really contribute them to the country now?"

Little 9 remained patient and explained carefully: "My lord, you have already brought the achievements in medical and pharmaceutical fields, such as pills for cell recovery, vision restoration, height increase, and body shaping, into the real world."

This is the convenience and connection provided by the system based on your talents, and these achievements have already driven change in the world to some extent.

But until a systemic breakthrough occurs, other technologies simply cannot be replicated.

“I understand,” Yuan Bao said thoughtfully. “We need to upgrade the system as soon as possible, and then achieve a breakthrough as soon as possible, so that we can have the opportunity to bring out those technologies and contribute to the country, right?”

After saying that, Yuan Bao checked his accumulated points and was pleasantly surprised to find that he had exceeded 100,000 points. It seemed that he was closer to the 200,000 points needed to upgrade to the level 5 system.

After listening to Xiao 9's explanation, Yuan Bao could understand it rationally, but the sense of loss in his heart just wouldn't go away, and his unhappiness was like a dark cloud hanging over him.

Since stepping into the Hall of Profound Truth, Yuan Bao felt as if he had embarked on a dreamlike journey interwoven with technology and mystery.

Inside the hall, there are all kinds of advanced technologies, each of which is enough to rewrite the course of human history.

The wondrous experience of exploring four-dimensional space filled her heart with endless longing. She thought that she would contribute these amazing discoveries to her motherland in the real world and bring about earth-shattering changes to her country.

However, the system's cold instructions were like a bucket of cold water, instantly extinguishing the burning flame in her heart.
