The third illusory wall will be behind some large roots at the bottom of the lift. Continue onward and cross over the gap by walking on the roots. Be prepared for an ambush and be ready to fight a few small enemies.
At the end, your path will be blocked by some large roots. Fall down through a hole in the floor to the right side of the room. The quickly roll out of the way, since there are exploding enemies close to where you land. Exploding enemies are all over this area so be ready to run away when you see them charge up.
The fouth illusory wall is behind some crates and barrels that conceal an exploding enemy. Continue onward and drop down onto the roots till you reach the floor. Beware: There are exploding enemies at the bottom as well, so make sure to dodge out of the way.
The fifth and final illusory wall will be at the end of this room. Afterwards, you should see a Site of Grace and the Divine Tower of West Altus.

The first discovered by the community, this wall was found to need about 50 hits before it revealed its secrets. It's located within the hallway of the first Illusory Wall outlined above.
After getting through the first section and past the first set of snails, turn the corner of the hallway and immediately look left. The wall you will need to wail at several times looks sunken and stands out from the rest.
You can use a weapon like Ghiza's Wheel to make the process faster (by using the Weapon Art), but eventually the wall will open up and lead you back to the room where you meet the rest of the Volcano Manor residents.
Illusory Walls are fake walls that hide other rooms or paths.
These secret areas could hide very valuable treasure such as items or weapons.
Illusory Walls are tricky to find because there are no clues that give them away and they look just like any other wall in the room.
One of the clues that could hint that there is an Illusory Wall in a room is that if a wall is open and barren.
Not every empty room will hide an Illusory Wall, but it's worth checking all the walls out if you do manage to find one.
If you are playing online, other players who have discovered Illusory Walls may leave a message on the ground in front of it.
However, keep in mind that these may turn out to be fake messages!
To pass through an Illusory Wall, you simply need to whack it with your weapon or roll through it.
This will cause the fake wall to dissipate, revealing what was behind it.
