Yang Jian recalled that A Nan, whom he had seen in Caesar Hotel before, was the corpse in Huang Ying’s memory, and he and his team investigated the hotel’s strange survivors. On the fourth floor, they found that the wall sealing a dangerous corridor had vanished, along with the shrouded corpse Yang Jian had sealed inside it.

• Yang Jian sketched the dead man from Huang Ying’s memory and recognized him as A Nan, who had been with Xiang Lan in Room 71.
• Li Yang and Tong Qian reported finding several old-fashioned corpses, and the team discussed whether people from earlier eras had survived inside the hotel.
• Yang Jian retrieved his cracked golden spear through water connected to the Ghost Lake, then led Li Yang and Tong Qian to investigate the fourth floor.
• The team found a decayed, supernatural corridor where a wall had once stood, and Yang Jian realized the shroud and tall male corpse he had sealed there were gone.
• Yang Jian suspected someone inside the hotel had broken through the wall and taken the corpse, but the corridor’s far end remained hidden from his Ghost Eye.

Yang Jian and his companions sealed the strange passage with a gold-and-steel door, though Yang Jian doubted it would hold. After eating, Yang Jian, Li Yang, and Tong Qian prepared to face whatever would happen at ten o’clock.

• Yang Jian, Li Yang, and Tong Qian discussed sealing the passage, and Yang Jian decided to forge a golden door reinforced with steel.
• Yang Jian used his Ghost Domain and supernatural methods to collect gold from across the city and brought tools to make the door.
• Yang Jian and Li Yang lifted the finished door into place, and Yang Jian welded its edges shut with gold.
• Tong Qian ordered food delivered by drone, and the three ate while waiting for ten o’clock.
• At nine fifty, Yang Jian, Li Yang, and Tong Qian moved into a spacious hall and prepared for the coming event.

Yang Jian, Li Yang, and Tong Qian witnessed Caesar Hotel transform into its restored state at night and investigated the supernatural changes. They found the golden door missing and discovered that room 401 briefly contained an old supernatural room.

• At ten o’clock, Caesar Hotel’s lights came on and the dusty building became a pristine, luxurious hotel; Tong Qian said it returned to normal at four in the morning.
• Li Yang theorized that the hotel had been shifted in time, and Yang Jian led the group through the transformed building to investigate.
• The group returned to the fourth-floor corridor and found that the golden door sealing the passage was gone; Yang Jian suggested they were in another version or time of the hotel.
• Yang Jian spotted fading, blackened footprints left by the tall male corpse and inferred that it had entered room 401.
• Li Yang opened room 401 with the door-opening curse, overcoming resistance, and the group saw an old supernatural room briefly appear before it changed back into a modern guest room.

Yang Jian realized that a supernatural room had swallowed Caesar Hotel and that escaped ghosts were trapped inside it. When a deadly musical curse led them to a hidden room, he used his sixth-layer Ghost Domain to reach it, where a corpse with Xiang Lan’s head attacked him.

• Yang Jian deduced that the hotel had been absorbed into a supernatural room and that ghosts from the corridor rooms were now wandering inside Caesar Hotel.
• Music began playing from the second-floor restaurant, and Yang Jian identified it as a death curse that would kill everyone who heard it when it ended.
• Yang Jian’s fourth-layer Ghost Domain failed to reveal the source, so he used the sixth layer and watched the restaurant shift into an old, supernatural place.
• A dried corpse with Xiang Lan’s head appeared at the piano, continued the curse without playing, and walked toward Yang Jian.
• The corpse grabbed Yang Jian’s wrist, causing his arm to wither as the corpse’s arm regained flesh and blood.

Yang Jian defeated the ghost and neutralized the cursed piano music with the Music Box Curse, then used the ghost lake to take the piano. In the sealed room, he and his companions encountered Chu Nan, whom Yang Jian believed had died, and the chapter ended with both sides facing off.

• Yang Jian broke free of the ghost’s attack, severed its head with the firewood axe, and recovered from his injuries through the seventh level of the Ghost Domain.
• Li Yang disrupted the piano’s deadly music, and Yang Jian played the Music Box Curse alongside it until both curses canceled each other out.
• Yang Jian explained how they had entered the sealed supernatural room and sank the cursed piano into the ghost lake to take it with him.
• Tong Qian spotted a watcher at the restaurant entrance, and a young man in a Zhongshan suit entered and identified himself as Chu Nan.
• Yang Jian confronted Chu Nan about his apparent death, and Li Yang and Tong Qian readied themselves as Chu Nan stopped before them.

Yang Jian questioned A Nan, who claimed he and others had been trapped for decades in a supernatural place where certain rooms enabled repeated revival after death. A Nan led Yang Jian, Li Yang, and Tong Qian away from the restaurant to meet other survivors, leaving the group wary of possible danger.

• Yang Jian threatened A Nan and demanded an explanation for his presence in the restaurant.
• A Nan described the final supernatural room and said he repeatedly revived in Room 101 after dying, though each return erased his memories.
• A Nan said he had been trapped for at least eighty-two years and that Xiang Lan had once revived in Room 701 before dying permanently.
• Yang Jian gave A Nan Xiang Lan's head in exchange for being taken to other survivors.
• A Nan led the group out of the restaurant as Yang Jian, Li Yang, and Tong Qian stayed alert and discussed whether to trust him.

Yang Jian and his companions followed A Nan through Caesar Hotel’s supernatural replica and took a haunted elevator toward Room 102. The elevator stalled on the dangerous third floor as ghosts forced their way inside, leaving Yang Jian to stop them.

• A Nan led Yang Jian, Tong Qian, and Li Yang along a route that avoided hidden ghosts and explained the dangers they had passed.
• A Nan brought the group to an operating elevator and said it was safer than crossing the ghost-infested third floor; Yang Jian agreed to ride with him.
• The elevator descended under supernatural interference while a ghost watched from above, and A Nan warned the group not to look up or attack it.
• After the elevator ran for several minutes, it stalled as numerous gray hands pried open its doors and footsteps approached from outside.
• A Nan told Yang Jian to drive back the invading ghost so the elevator could move again.

Yang Jian and the others faced a powerful ghost intercepting the elevator at the third floor, and used a ghost candle to escape its attack. After the elevator continued downward, A Nan revealed that he had died during earlier encounters with the ghost.

• Li Yang used Blocking Door to hold back the dead-gray hands prying open the elevator doors, but the third-floor ghost struck and overwhelmed his power.
• Yang Jian stopped Li Yang from forcing a confrontation and threw a lit ghost candle through the elevator doors.
• The candle revealed a vast pile of corpses and a motionless ghost on a narrow path, then burned out after making the ghost step back.
• The elevator resumed descending, and Yang Jian prepared a second ghost candle as another impact shook the elevator without stopping it.
• A Nan said he had passed the third floor through luck, then matched three fingers to dried bloodstains on the elevator doors, revealing he had died there before.

Yang Jian and the others reached the fourth floor by surviving an attack from the elevator ghost. A Nan led them to a supposedly safe room, but its occupant slammed the door shut, and Yang Jian kicked it open.

• A Nan explained that the bloodstains in the elevator came from one of A Nan’s previous resurrections.
• As the elevator ghost attacked with hanging hair and crawling noises, Yang Jian used his ghost shadow to keep it at bay until the elevator reached the fourth floor.
• Yang Jian spotted a monochrome woman and child in the corridor, then Li Yang shut the elevator doors to trap the decomposed ghost inside.
• A Nan led the group to a room marked with blood and black paper ash, calling it the safest room on the floor.
• A middle-aged man opened the door, immediately shut it again, and Yang Jian kicked it open.

Yang Jian met the people trapped in Caesar Hotel and proposed that their endless revivals might prevent them from ever truly escaping. The group remained uncertain about his theory as Tong Qian pointed to decomposed corpses that could support it.

• Yang Jian entered a numbered room and met A Nan, Zhu Jian, Dong Yulan, and Wang Genquan, who had been trapped in the hotel and repeatedly revived.
• Yang Jian introduced Li Yang and Tong Qian, then told the group he would prevent the hotel’s ghosts from reaching the outside world.
• Zhu Jian said he had been trapped for about sixty years, while A Nan said their group had reached the final room and hoped to find an exit.
• Yang Jian speculated that the group might have escaped before but died outside and revived without remembering, and that someone had deliberately trapped them in the hotel.
• Zhu Jian rejected the theory, but Tong Qian cited several decomposed corpses in the hotel whose clothing resembled the trapped people’s, suggesting they might have escaped and died.

Yang Jian negotiated with the trapped survivors to learn about their records and continued searching for a way to seal the supernatural place. As he prepared to leave with Li Yang and Tong Qian, paper ash warned that a ghost was outside, and the door began shaking violently.

• Yang Jian told the survivors he intended to seal the exit after finding it, and Wang Genquan agreed that containing the supernatural threat mattered more than their hope of escape.
• Dong Yulan agreed to share information and explained where her and the others' records were kept, but Zhu Jian and the others refused to turn back with Yang Jian.
• Yang Jian set off with Li Yang and Tong Qian to search for the records, leaving the survivors behind.
• At the doorway, Yang Jian noticed paper ash scattering beneath the door, and Dong Yulan warned him that a ghost was outside.
• Wang Genquan explained that the ash warned of a nearby ghost and that blood on the door concealed them, just as the door began shaking violently.

Yang Jian and his group left their compromised hiding place and returned to the deeper corridors of the supernatural place to seek recorded information. A Nan followed them, warning that the area ahead was dangerous.

• Li Yang opened the shaking door, and the door-opening curse drove away the ghost controlling a decayed corpse outside.
• Yang Jian led Li Yang and Tong Qian out, while Zhu Jian, Dong Yulan, Wang Genquan, and A Nan also left the room; A Nan chose to follow Yang Jian.
• Yang Jian reached the entrance corridors and continued deeper toward the room containing information, with A Nan following behind.
• A Nan explained that some rooms replenished food and water, and Yang Jian showed the group water created through the Liar Ghost's supernatural power.
• A Nan warned Yang Jian that they had entered a dangerous area where they could encounter a vicious ghost at any time.

Yang Jian investigated Room 88 and discovered that its television showed a supernatural sequence involving ghosts and himself. The room trapped him inside the television’s image, leaving him uncertain which layer of the supernatural space was the true Room 88.

• Yang Jian entered Room 88 despite Tong Qian and Li Yang’s concerns, then searched its bedroom for information and found nothing.
• Yang Jian touched the old television, causing it to show the room and a ghost that shifted through several positions on the screen.
• The ghost in the television watched Yang Jian through another television, and Yang Jian realized he had been trapped inside the image while Li Yang still saw him standing at the doorway.
• The television showed a second ghost joining the first, then multiple layers of ghosts and screens before the display went black.
• Yang Jian noticed the sofa was no longer worn and wondered which layer of the supernatural place held the true Room 88.

Yang Jian was trapped inside Room 88, where he discovered decades of messages left by people who had died there and revived elsewhere. As he learned that the ghost was sitting on the sofa, the ghost appeared behind him in the living room.

• Li Yang stopped Tong Qian from entering Room 88 and warned A Nan to cooperate instead of hiding information.
• Yang Jian searched the room and found blood-written messages left by people trapped there across many years.
• Yang Jian noticed the messages said A Nan revived in Room 701, contradicting A Nan's claim that he revived in Room 101.
• Yang Jian read Zhu Jian's message that the television was the apparent exit and that the ghost sat on the sofa, not inside the television.
• While Yang Jian read, a ghostly figure sat on the sofa behind him, staring at the old television.

Yang Jian discovered that Room 88 trapped people in a chain of supernatural rooms, with televisions acting as the medium and ghosts appearing on sofas. Using Ghost Lake, he escaped the trap and rejoined his companions, who left Room 88 behind as its door opened again after they departed.

• Yang Jian noticed a shadow watching him in Room 88, then used Ghost Lake to enter a deeper version of the room through the television.
• Yang Jian found a ghost on the sofa and confirmed that each deeper Room 88 contained another group of ghosts, making the phenomenon difficult to eliminate completely.
• Yang Jian repeatedly used Ghost Lake to escape the supernatural rooms and return to the living room.
• Li Yang and Tong Qian welcomed Yang Jian back, and Yang Jian warned the group that Room 88 could trap people until they died.
• Yang Jian told A Nan that he, Dong Yulan, and Zhu Jian had died repeatedly in Room 88, then led the group onward.
• After the group left, Room 88's door silently opened again and a figure swayed inside.

Yang Jian led the group through the increasingly dangerous Caesar Hotel toward Room 102 and encountered a group of ghosts in opera robes inside a Ghost Domain. His Ghost Lake water could not fully contain them, so he advanced with a golden spear to test whether he could dismember one.

• Yang Jian and the group left Room 88 and searched for Room 102, while A Nan directed them toward a passage he vaguely recognized.
• Yang Jian had Li Yang mark their turns with golden bullets as they entered a passage that grew unnaturally long and dark.
• Yang Jian identified the passage as a Ghost Domain and spotted a group of figures in opera robes approaching through the darkness.
• Yang Jian used water connected to Room 88 to try to sink the ghosts, but they stopped halfway down and resisted Ghost Lake's power.
• Yang Jian told the others to keep retreating, produced a golden spear, and walked toward the ghosts to test his attack.

Yang Jian dismembered two opera-costumed ghosts and used Ghost Lake to suppress and send them to Room 88, but the first ghost infected him with a deadly curse. He abandoned his contaminated body and awakened in a new one as the cursed ghost emerged and the others opened their eyes.

• Yang Jian severed the head of a ghost in a red opera costume and sent its body into Room 88 using Ghost Lake's water.
• Yang Jian approached a ghost in a white opera costume and dismembered it, sending it into Room 88 as well.
• A curse spread across Yang Jian's clothes and caused the first ghost's face to emerge beneath his skin.
• Yang Jian abandoned his contaminated body and used the Liar Ghost's ability to awaken in a new one.
• The cursed ghost emerged from Yang Jian's collapsed body and opened its eyes as the other ghosts opened theirs and stared at him.

Yang Jian and his companions avoided a procession of thirty-five opera-costumed ghosts after he used the Ghost Scissors to sever their killing pattern. At Room 101, he exposed A Nan’s deception about his resurrection room and killed him to search his memories for the truth about Xiang Lan.

• Yang Jian used the Ghost Scissors to cut his connection to the opera-costumed ghosts, then led everyone to stand aside as the ghosts passed without attacking.
• After the group counted thirty-five ghosts, Yang Jian continued through the fading Ghost Domain and found Room 101 in the real Caesar Hotel.
• A Nan admitted that he had resurrected in Room 701 and had misled Yang Jian so he could return to Xiang Lan’s resurrection room.
• A Nan explained that he wanted to discover why Xiang Lan had failed to resurrect and said she might know where she had recorded her information.
• Yang Jian killed A Nan and sent a ghostly shadow into him to steal his memories.

Yang Jian and his companions investigated Room 101 after A Nan vanished before they could take his memories. They discovered the room recognized Xiang Lan’s head and concluded she might still be alive in a half-dead state, leaving them to decide how to wake or revive her.

• Yang Jian tried to seize A Nan’s memories, but A Nan vanished as the ghost shadow invaded him, leaving behind the evil ghost inside his body.
• Yang Jian sent the evil ghost into the Ghost Lake and realized A Nan had let himself die to give Xiang Lan a chance to revive.
• Yang Jian, Tong Qian, and Li Yang entered Room 101 and found no traces of previous visitors, while its mirror reflected none of them.
• Yang Jian placed Xiang Lan’s head before the mirror, and it appeared in the reflection, revealing that Room 101 recognized her.
• Yang Jian concluded Xiang Lan was not completely dead and proposed either killing her again to trigger revival or restoring her balance and attaching her head to a headless body.

Yang Jian revived Xiang Lan by suppressing the vicious ghost inside her head, then questioned her about the Caesar Hotel. Xiang Lan agreed to lead the group to Room 100, while Yang Jian turned his attention to the secret of her revival room.

• Yang Jian used the Liar Ghost and his ghost shadow to rebuild Xiang Lan's body, suppress the vicious ghost in her head, and restore her consciousness.
• Xiang Lan woke and explained that she had existed between life and death for over a year, preserving her memories.
• Xiang Lan told Yang Jian that ten people had been trapped in the hotel and that she had recorded information in Room 100.
• Yang Jian learned that Xiang Lan believed the hotel could only be blocked because something in reality sustained it, and he asked her to take them to Room 100.
• Yang Jian proposed that Xiang Lan had failed to discover the secret of her revival room because she had investigated it as an ordinary person.

Yang Jian used Xiang Lan as a medium to uncover the source of her endless resurrections in Room 101. As the group left for Room 100, every door in the corridor began opening, forcing them to press deeper into the building.

• Yang Jian controlled Xiang Lan and used the Ghost Eye to reveal Room 101’s hidden memorials and a tombstone pinning down Xiang Lan’s corpse.
• Yang Jian concluded that Xiang Lan’s repeated resurrections came from a curse that created a false body while binding her real corpse to Room 101.
• Xiang Lan asked how to stop resurrecting, but Yang Jian refused to reveal the method and offered only to help her die.
• Li Yang spotted black footprints outside Room 101, and doors began opening throughout the corridor and at the intersection.
• Yang Jian led Li Yang and Tong Qian toward Room 100, deciding that continuing deeper was safer than turning back.

Yang Jian used the eighth layer of the Ghost Domain to restart the corridor and prevent a flying bone from killing Li Yang, but the strain of the restart began to erode his body. The group reached the dangerous room again, and Yang Jian ordered Tong Qian to use a ghost candle to pass it.

• Yang Jian pinned the fierce ghost from Room 108 to the floor with the cracked spear and carried her along as the group searched for Room 100.
• A bone flew from a dark room and struck Li Yang, causing his flesh to rapidly rot away.
• Yang Jian froze the corridor with the sixth layer of the Ghost Domain, then restarted the area by twenty-eight seconds using the eighth layer.
• Yang Jian deflected the bone with his spear before it hit Li Yang, though Ghost Lake's power began damaging Yang Jian's body.
• Yang Jian warned Li Yang to stay away from the doors and told Tong Qian to light a ghost candle and rush through the dangerous doorway.

Yang Jian led Tong Qian and Li Yang past the deadly Room 104, where a bone attack consumed Tong Qian’s ghost candle and left Yang Jian visibly weakened. The three reached the open, normally lit Room 100.

• Tong Qian used a ghost candle to cross Room 104, but a flying piece of dead man’s bone changed course and attacked her.
• The bone fell toward Tong Qian, and the ghost candle flared up and burned away completely before the bone struck her.
• Yang Jian ordered Tong Qian to move away from Room 104 and told the group to use any resources needed as they continued.
• Yang Jian identified the dangerous room as Room 104 and reflected that the attack could have killed Li Yang if he had been hit.
• Yang Jian, Tong Qian, and Li Yang passed the final room and arrived at the open, brightly lit Room 100.

Yang Jian entered Room 100 and read Xiang Lan’s notebook, which recorded her repeated attempts to explore the supernatural place and survive its dangers. He learned that the notes’ room-by-room information might no longer be reliable, but later entries described ways to handle specific ghosts and use furnace ashes for protection.

• Yang Jian entered Room 100, where he and Li Yang examined a table set with hot dishes, cold rice, and red chopsticks arranged like offerings.
• Li Yang shut the door, and Yang Jian confirmed the room had no ghosts before picking up Xiang Lan’s notebook.
• Yang Jian read Xiang Lan’s early records about dying and reviving in Room 101, and her warnings about dangerous rooms.
• Yang Jian realized that the opened doors and roaming ghosts had likely made Xiang Lan’s room information outdated.
• Yang Jian continued reading as Xiang Lan’s later notes described how to survive Room 49’s singing ghost and obtain furnace fuel and protective ashes from Rooms 104 and 38.

Yang Jian and his companions read Xiang Lan’s notebook and learned that Room 1 might contain the exit, though Xiang Lan had never returned from searching for it. The notebook then warned that ghosts were approaching Room 100 and that the real danger was behind Yang Jian.

• Yang Jian read how Xiang Lan had studied the rooms’ ghosts, developed ways to survive them, and eventually set out to find an exit near Room 1.
• Yang Jian found Xiang Lan’s note that she had diverted to Room 10 to leave information before attempting to reach Room 1 again.
• Yang Jian told Li Yang and Tong Qian that Xiang Lan’s records would help them, but also showed that Room 1 was extremely dangerous.
• Yang Jian found strange warnings at the end of the notebook saying a ghost was nearby, and knocking began at four points on Room 100’s door.
• Li Yang used the Blocking Door Ghost to seal the door as Yang Jian read the warning that the danger was inside Room 100 and behind him.
