“Boom!” She was winning in this struggle since the wills inched closer and closer.

　　“How can she do this? If she could shoulder twelve wills in one attempt, it meant that she could get thirty-six in total, and no one could match her afterward.” Someone was startled after seeing Lunargrasp’s ambition.

　　The emperors present were astonished by the sheer insanity of this task.

　　“She’s unbelievable.” A low-level Grand Emperor said: “Does the Dark Crow not know that this might bring about the Heavenly Execution?”

　　“Not necessarily.” An older top Grand Emperor spoke with a discerning glare: “The Dark Crow is allowing this… it might have something to do with a legend.”

　　The low-level Grand Emperor asked: “What legend?”

　　“Rumor has it that a very long time ago, our Grand Emperors were just like the Immortal Emperors, needing just one shouldering process.” The old emperor slightly raised his eyes.

　　“Just one time to shoulder all twelve? Does that mean thirty-six in total?” The low-level one said.

　　The old one replied: “Twelve wills are our ultimate limit, one process or three alike. No one can break through this limitation. However, the legend says that we didn’t need three processes in the beginning.”

　　The low-level one remained skeptical: “Really? That shouldn’t be possible, it’s not written down at all.”

　　He didn’t have that many Heaven’s Wills but had lived for a long time. 

　　“One Grand Emperor was able to do it - Purewood Divine Emperor!” The older one revealed.

　　“Purewood!” The low-level one was stunned. This was a mysterious emperor that couldn’t be traced. He also had four Primary Wills and have gone further than all the other emperors.

　　“Really? He got twelve wills in one process?” The low-level one said, not quite believing it.

　　“I can’t confirm but one thing is for certain - the three processes began with Qian Dao Heaven Emperor.” [1]

　　“Progenitor of the Qian Clan! Rumored to be the next Grand Emperor after Purewood Divine Emperor!” 

　　The Qian might not be the first sect with nine emperors, but it was certainly one of the oldest lineages in the thirteen continents.

　　Qian Dao Heaven Emperor had nine wills so he wasn’t that exceptional. However, he was virtually a living fossil, the only person confirmed to have met Purewood Divine Emperor in person! He had experienced the long history of the thirteen continents.

　　“Rumor has it that Purewood shouldered twelve wills at the same time, but Qian Dao Heaven Emperor tried to grab six and failed. Later on, Purewood taught him to divide the shouldering process into three stages.” The old emperor explained: “That’s something I’m sure of, the current ascension system started with Qian Dao Heaven Emperor.”

　　“What’s the benefit of grabbing all twelve at the same time?” The low-level emperor inquired again.
