• Xiao Hua examined more than a dozen Hero Registers closely and still found nothing.

Xiao Hua and Princess Zixia searched Lan Yue Palace for the secret Fairy Xingyue had hidden, then Xiao Hua used her token to enter the palace pavilion alone. Inside, an illusion showed another Xiao Hua and Princess Zixia on a beach, and he found an ordinary-looking book beside a meditation cushion.

• Xiao Hua concluded that Fairy Xingyue's secret was not among the Heroes Pavilion's jade pupils, so he and Princess Zixia searched the halls of Lan Yue Palace.
• Xiao Hua and Princess Zixia reached an enormous garden and spotted the true Lan Yue Palace pavilion, but an illusion kept it out of reach.
• Xiao Hua used Lightning Escape to shatter the spatial barrier, and Fairy Xingyue's token unlocked the pavilion while freezing Princess Zixia outside.
• Xiao Hua entered the pavilion and passed through a doorway into a beach scene, where he saw an illusion of another Xiao Hua and Princess Zixia together.
• Xiao Hua found a meditation cushion and an old book on a platform, then saw the beach illusion appear again as he reached for the book.

• Fairy Xingyue’s added story described powerful people separating six warring tribes with five deep chasms, and Jade Slip Xiao Hua wondered whether Xu Zhi had liked it.

Jade Slip Xiao Hua deciphered Fairy Xingyue’s story as a warning that the Four Great Continents had been divided by powerful immortals using three artificial formations. He left Lan Yue Palace with Princess Zixia, keeping the dangerous secret between them.

• Jade Slip Xiao Hua interpreted Fairy Xingyue’s metaphors as describing an ancient conflict among the Four Great Continents’ factions and an intervention by Immortal Venerables.
• Jade Slip Xiao Hua realized the Great Sumeru Buddha Array, Five Elements Annihilation Great Formation, and Time Song Demon Array might form an artificial seal separating Xiaoyu Continent from the Three Great Continents.
• Jade Slip Xiao Hua destroyed Fairy Xingyue’s scroll so it would not remain as evidence of her secret, then searched the palace halls and collected their remaining objects.

• Xiao Hua asked whether the Multicolored Sea God Conch wanted to return to the Sea Red Domain, and she explained that she had found no route out of the Three Great Continents.

Xiao Hua learned that the world-ending insects were mayflies from the Upper Realm and connected them to the black specks in the spatial veins, while the Multicolored Sea God Conch despaired over the Three Great Continents’ fate. Their conversation softened when she brought out Bi Bo and the children she shared with Little White.

• The Multicolored Sea God Conch told Xiao Hua that records described mayflies devastating the Jiang Domain before golden light apparently returned them to the Upper Realm.
• Xiao Hua realized the mayflies were the black specks he had seen in the spatial veins and suspected the Xuanhong River’s unusual Law of Time explained their arrival before the Xuanhong Discourse on the Dao.
• The Multicolored Sea God Conch lamented that the mayflies would turn the Three Great Continents into a dead realm within a hundred years, and Xiao Hua chose not to press her to help.
• The Multicolored Sea God Conch agreed to take Xiao Hua to her Northern Sea palace after Little White finished training in the Western Sea.

• Xiao Hua revealed that Xiaoyu Continent and the Three Great Continents were once one realm called the Four Great Continents, divided by the Triple Innate Divine Seal, and the Multicolored Sea God Conch reacted in disbelief.

Xiao Hua learned that the Multicolored Sea God Conch had helped bring about the West Sea Dragon King's disappearance and tried to recruit her help for the Daoist Sect’s plans in the West Sea. She refused to find the Creation Sect a base, and Xiao Hua concluded that the sect should settle somewhere barren to avoid attracting the mayfly strange insects.

• Xiao Hua proposed breaking the ancient formation that sealed Xiaoyu Continent, but the Multicolored Sea God Conch doubted they could overcome an Immortal Realm restriction.
• The Multicolored Sea God Conch sent Bibo and the young conches away, then admitted she had injured the West Sea Dragon King while taking Little White Dragon to Qihe Abyss.

• Xiao Hua explained that the Daoist Sect planned to establish itself in the West Sea and asked the Multicolored Sea God Conch to find the Creation Sect a suitable base.
• The Multicolored Sea God Conch refused and warned that mayfly strange insects were drawn to places rich in Primordial Qi.
