Xi Fan's attempt to control the princess and seize imperial power wasn't due to boredom, nor was it for the sake of an inconsequential pursuit of power.
Everything Xi Fan did was aimed at one goal—advancing to the eighth tier, to become the most formidable power under the world's rules.
Xi Fan had been planning this advancement for nearly a century.
During this century, he scoured the world's largest hidden realms and even the abyss for treasures that could help him break through his limitations.
In the Empire, besides [Shalan] who had just advanced to the seventh tier, the other three seventh-tier powerhouses (Roland, Andrew, Charles Forsythia) also maintained close contact with him.
Three years ago, Xi Fan finally gathered all the necessary treasures, confident he could advance to the next tier!
However, these treasures all required a unique crystal called a [Frenzy Fragment] to activate their full power.
