The woman wore a light gauze robe of smoky purple, while ivory-white ribbons drifted slowly behind her, making her seem like an otherworldly fairy in a painting.
She walked along the edge of the city wall in a pair of Crescent Embroidered Shoes. With every step she took, an ice-crystal Stepping Stone formed beneath her feet. Lightly borrowing strength with her toes, she floated forward a short distance, and the ice-crystal Stepping Stone shattered with a boom. Thus, each of her graceful steps was accompanied by the crisp, pleasing sound of ice crystals breaking...

Looking at the purple-clad woman, Luo Zheng's eyes remained calm, but he was highly vigilant inside. His four limbs also stretched out silently.
Cultivation was one standard for measuring a martial artist's strength, but in the Upper Realm, this standard had become extremely broad.
For example, a powerful Divine Sea Realm martial artist might be far stronger than a Divine Extremity Realm martial artist with ordinary talent!
Luo Zheng had previously killed a Divine Extremity Realm martial artist with ease. Moreover, this situation was not limited to Luo Zheng alone. Many of the core martial artists in this universe, as well as the prodigies of the various races, could do the same.
When Luo Zheng sensed the woman's biting chill, he also realized that her strength was extraordinary. She might be the strongest person he had encountered since entering the Dreamlike Battlefield.
"The City Lord is here..."
"Is this woman the City Lord of the Main City? To think she possesses such bearing!"
"Heh heh, what's so strange about someone from the Ji family having such bearing?"
"..."
Many martial artists atop the city wall caught sight of the woman's appearance. Their eyes gleamed with excitement—the kind of expression that surfaced only when they
