Just as Chu Keqing was about to pull him out of the room, a cold look flashed in Chen Yan’s eyes!
Bang!!
A stream of Primordial Qi pierced through Chu Keqing’s chest outside the door!
A bloody and mangled penetrating wound instantly appeared on her chest!
Chen Yan aid his thumb at her and then kicked her with a flying kick, sending the Chu Keqing outside the door flying into the courtyard!
"Law Order·Breaking Rune Technique!!"
Chen Yan rapidly ford a fingerprint with his hands. After a flash of golden light, he blinked again!
When he saw clearly, his heart filled with dread!
He was still in the room of the Trial Secret Realm... but he had already reached the door!
Only one step away from reaching for the door handle and opening it to go outside!!
Just as Chen Yan reacted and was about to pull back his hand, he heard a whooshing sound behind him. He turned his head and saw Chu Keqing charging at him!
The woman’s fingertips held a talisman paper, her face filled with evil Qi!
"Talisman Order: Immovable as a Mountain!"
Buzz, Chen Yan instantly felt his body grow heavy!
However, he quickly ford a fingerprint with his hand, and the Breaking Rune Technique broke the restraint.
"Talisman Order·Sword!"
"Talisman Command: Spear!"
"Rune Sword!"
"Talisman Command: Halberd!"
Several runes burned rapidly, especially the latter, which seed to be Chu Keqing’s most powerful attack techniques in her talisman art.
After the sword, spear, and halberd talismans burned, transparent outlines of weapons condensed from Primordial Qi appeared in the air, all rushing toward Chen Yan.
Chen Yan dodged left and right, then quickly used the Escape Rune Technique to flash past and sweep by Chu Keqing’s side.
Chu Keqing was startled and turned around, raising another piece of talisman paper in her hand...
"It’s !" Chen Yan shouted.
"Fake! You’re a fake!!" Chu Keqing also shouted: "Talisman Order..."
Chen Yan, helpless, hurriedly shouted.
"I’ve touched your chest!"
"........."
Chu Keqing’s hand stopped in midair, her movents suddenly frozen.

A mont later, the two sat back on the edge of the bed again—Not that they had to sit on the bed, but in this damn room, there wasn’t even a chair, so they had to sit on the bed or the floor.
Chu Keqing whispered, "Earlier, senior, you seed to suddenly lose your mind, then you pushed away with a palm and strode towards the door. I tried to stop you but couldn’t hold you back, and you even kicked ... I thought I was under so spell, and you must have been an illusion created by so demon..."
Chen Yan looked at Chu Keqing with a complicated expression... Sure enough, there was a footprint on her pants leg, clearly left by him.
Alright, he did kick the fake Chu Keqing in the illusion realm...
Luckily, the Finger Sword didn’t hit the real Chu Keqing, or she would have been severely injured if not dead.
"Are you hurt?"
"Not too bad. Before the trial started, I preemptively placed an Unloading Talisman on myself to offset most of the force."
Chen Yan breathed a sigh of relief and then whispered, "I was caught in an illusion technique just now; it seed to drag into a dream realm..."
He quickly described to her the scene of returning to the temple in the illusion realm, where they had eaten and drunk in the small building in the backyard the night before.
Finally, with a heavy tone, Chen Yan added, "I’m just shocked at how this demon did it. I clearly resisted the sleepiness and didn’t fall asleep, but it managed to drag into a dream the mont I blinked."
Chu Keqing shook her head, "Even you, senior, couldn’t resist such a spell..."
Chen Yan pondered seriously and suddenly had a thought!
"First, the sleepiness, then the door banging, and finally the scream from the bathroom...
Three attempts, three failures—I thought I had successfully resisted the opponent’s thods, which made feel a bit proud. It was this bit of pride that made let my guard down, and I got caught in its trap!"
Pausing, Chen Yan continued with a serious expression:
"Since the trial began tonight, we’ve encountered several situations, but the demon hiding in the dark hasn’t directly hard us at all.
Whether it was the sleepiness, the door banging, the scream in the bathroom, or the recent dream realm...
They all just tried to trick us into opening the door and leaving!"
Chu Keqing’s face also grew serious as she said slowly: "So... the danger in this room is that a demon is using various ans to confuse us into opening the door? Perhaps due to so special rules of this room, it cannot directly attack us?"
"It’s possible," Chen Yan nodded. "Opening the door before dawn will result in punishnt! It can’t directly harm us, so it tries to trick us into opening the door ourselves."
"So we’ve unknowingly fallen into the demon’s illusion?" Chu Keqing sucked in a cold breath. "When did it cast this spell on us? How did we get enchanted without noticing? I can understand if it happened to , but even you, senior, with your level of cultivation, fell for it unknowingly?"
Chen Yan remained silent, thoughts racing through his mind, his gaze flickering.
Suddenly, a burst of light erged from the walls of the room!
They looked up to see flas bursting out of the wooden boards on the walls, the ceiling, and the windows!
"Is it on fire?" Chu Keqing reflexively blurted out but imdiately realized: "Fake! Another illusion technique!"
Chen Yan squinted, sitting by the bedside, motionless.
Seeing the flas grow fiercer, in no ti, thick smoke filled the room, and the fire had spread to most of the space.
