Several days ago, Daoist Buyu was released from prison. After parting ways with Yun Zhi, he continued to travel around the continent, promoting the"Legend of the Dao Sect"and his glorious image along the way.
When he arrived at Steadfast City in Ji State, he discovered that Steadfast City was already enveloped by a [rule], it was possible to enter, but not to leave. To the outside world, Steadfast City seemed to be functioning as usual, with people coming and going incessantly.
In reality, it was the power of the [rule] at work; entry was indeed possible, but no one could leave.
Those who seem to have left the city were in fact fake people created by the rule.
These fake beings were identical to real humans, they had same memories, habits, and behaviors.
Only when the rule was broken would the fake persons disappear from the outside world.
