The System Administrator's voice replied, "Very well, Dorian. You can use the system's guidance to optimize your Spiritual Energy gathering. Please note that excessive Spiritual Energy gathering can be taxing on your body. Be cautious and balance your efforts."
Dorian nodded, understanding the warning. He began to meditate, focusing on his breath and the flow of Spiritual Energy within him. The system provided guidance, offering tips and techniques to optimize his energy gathering.
As Dorian meditated, he felt his Spiritual Energy increasing. The system's interface flashed with updates, tracking his progress.
