When I was destitute, all I wanted was a bowl of food to fill my stomach. Once I had enough to eat and wear, my desires became wealth, status, and fame. When I rose to court and became a general, I wanted to expand the realm and make my name immortal in the history books. When I commanded a million soldiers and carved out a kingdom for myself, all I wanted was to take that final step toward the throne!
The greater your abilities, the greater your ambition. Ambition is the driving force behind all progress.
In the mortal world, I'll be an emperor. When I ascend to the immortal realm, I'll overthrow its dynasty too and become an Immortal Emperor!
