Fu Henghua persuaded the Purple Xuan survivors to consider an alliance with the Fu Family by offering to solve their people’s afflictions and handing them the man responsible for their kingdom’s destruction. At Turtle-Burial Reef, he discovered that spirit turtles had altered the island formations and devised a way to reach the central palace’s treasure.

• Fu Henghua explained that the spirit money was intended for Purple Xuan Kingdom’s wronged souls and offered to help the survivors restore their nation and solve their descendants’ problems.

Fu Henghua prepared to help Purple Xuan Kingdom recover by drawing the Eastern Region’s cultivation families into a plan to kill Wei Shihui before he could reach Nascent Soul. At Nine-Palace Isles, he used Pei Su’s formation and the Later-Heaven Trigrams to open a path into Luo Palace, carrying himself and two companions inside.

• Long Ye and Pei Su suspected that Fu Henghua’s group had brought supplies to win over the Purple Xuan Kingdom survivors and recruit them against the Wei Family.

Fu Henghua, Fu Liuhui, and Fu Xuanxing crossed a yarrow patch filled with centipede demons and discovered that Fu Tongjun had been raising Gu there. They followed her trail to a three-way fork and found a message suggesting their father had also passed through.

• Fu Xuanxing followed Wind Resonance across the yarrow patch by stepping between turtle shells while Fu Liuhui and Fu Henghua cleared the centipedes.
• Fu Henghua created nine imitated spirit turtles to draw the centipedes together, then used a blood curse and Separation Flame to destroy most of the swarm and kill its largest demon.
• The surviving centipedes fought over the demon's Origin Pearl, and Fu Henghua found a Gu Stone that revealed Fu Tongjun had scattered stones to make the centipedes raise Gu.

• Fu Henghua and Fu Liuhui realized their father might have reached Turtle-Burial Reef after making arrangements at Erlong Ravine.

Fu Henghua followed the middle path, uncovered his father’s traces, and activated a Five Elements array that carried him to the central peak, where he found no further clues. Fu Liuhui and Fu Xuanxing entered the Nine-Dragon Pool passage and discovered a jade turtle shell bearing a complete Lo Shu, while a warning revealed that the pool was a deadly trap.

• Fu Liuhui led Fu Xuanxing along the right path and found Fu Tongjun’s warning directing them underground.

• Fu Xuanxing and Fu Liuhui escaped as Nine-Dragon Pool collapsed after the Jade Crab retrieved the Jade Tortoise Shell.
• Fu Henghua used the Four-Seasons Formation and his Heart Ape to haul up the Lo Shu, whereupon the nine dragons merged into it and the surrounding Spirit Tortoises rioted.
• Xiaoyu, Jin Xian’e, Xue Kai, and their allies brought on a snowfall and fought Spirit Tortoises to force them back into hibernation.
• Fu Henghua rejected transforming himself into a Black Tortoise and chose the Jade Tortoise Lo Shu as his natal treasure.
• Fu Henghua blood-refined the Lo Shu with nine drops of heart’s blood, then inscribed the Nine-Star Lo Shu Restriction on it.
• The Lo Shu deduced three more restrictions and repaired a flawed Foundation Establishment method, giving Fu Henghua hope of developing a cultivation art for his grandfather.

Liu Xu’s soul-summoning rite for Wei Chongwei drew hundreds of thousands of wronged Zixuan spirits, whose resentment could not be dispelled while the Wei Family remained. Fu Henghua trapped the ghosts with stellar arts and began turning Turtle-Burial Reef into a Ghost Kingdom, where he uncovered clues about his father’s repeated use of life-saving treasures.

• Fu Henghua and Jin Xian’e and Xue Kai rearranged the reef mountains into a Lo Shu formation and restored the Nine-Dragon Pool, where Fu Henghua found remnants of his father’s life-saving treasures and uncovered a piece of Breath Soil.

Fu Henghua completed Whirlwind Islet with Breath Soil, sheltered the wronged souls of the Purple Xuan Kingdom, and named the transformed island Luogui Island. He learned that the souls were tied to Wei Shihui’s coming Soul Formation Tribulation, while the Fu Family prepared to use Luogui Island in its campaign to reclaim Purple Veranda Island.

• Fu Henghua placed the wronged souls in an illusory Luo City above the Nine-Dragon Pool and cultivated a Nine Yin Serpent Vine there.
• Fu Henghua and the others shaped the reef into a giant tortoise and renamed it Luogui Island, while Fu Henghua failed to record the yarrow’s awakening process in a secret register.

Fu Henghua outlined a plan to lure Wei Zhiwen onto Luogui Island, while Fu Xuanxing learned about the Purple Xuan children’s Spiritfolk traits and their cultivation prospects.

He began carrying Luogui Island east with thousands of wronged souls bound into Yin-energy turtles, leaving his group to head first for Earthflame Island.

• Fu Henghua and Liu Xu summoned the wronged souls of Luo City into Yin-energy turtles, then used more than ten thousand of them to carry Luogui Island east toward Earthflame Island.

• Fu Tongjun guessed Fu Henghua was connected to Purple Veranda Island and decided to investigate it instead of returning to Coiling Dragon Island.

Fu Henghua also staged a curse against Wei Zhiwen to lure him onto Luogui Island, where the gathered wronged souls could expose a flaw in him.

• Fu Henghua built a ghost camp and yin platform beneath Dui Palace Peak, set up a straw effigy bearing Wei Zhiwen’s name, and drew yin qi from Luo City to lure Wei Zhiwen to Luogui Island.

Fu Heyi’s formation broke the Wei Family’s control of Jade Rabbit Island, triggering a battle among the island’s cultivators.

After the alliance forced him to retreat, Fu Henghua resolved to face him himself, aiming to defeat him at Luogui Island before Fu Zhaoye's wedding.

• Wei Zhiwen destroyed the Bao Family's foundation on Jade Rabbit Island, killing more than a hundred people, and Bao Zhenghe joined Xue Kai and Jin Xian'e against him.

• Wei Zhiwen escaped with Wei Zhihe and Wei Chongxian as the remaining Wei Family cultivators were killed; Fu Henghua insisted on trying to defeat Wei Zhiwen himself.
• Fu Henghua planned to trap Wei Zhiwen on Luogui Island, restrict his Dao Domain and escape arts, and create an opening for Fu Xuanxing's Xuanmen treasure to break his Origin Core before the next day's hour of the dragon.

Fu Henghua searched Jade Rabbit Island for its legendary Jade Rabbit, hoping to obtain spirit objects that would help him counter Wei Zhiwen. After the Fu Family negotiated for three Cassia Tree branches and withdrew from the island’s dispute, Fu Henghua and Fu Xuanxing set out to lure the rabbit with golden liquid.

• Fu Henghua rejected taking over Jade Rabbit Island, divined that its Cassia Tree might yield medicine for his grandfather, and entered the damaged formation to find an immature Heavenmoon Spirit Fungus.
• Fu Henghua arranged for the Fu Family to receive three Cassia Tree branches and medicinal herbs in exchange for leaving Jade Rabbit Island’s affairs to the Bao and Cheng Families from the following day.

• Fu Tongjun used Passion Gu to enthrall Wei Family cultivators aboard a tower ship and explained that the four families planned to provoke Wei Shihui into leaving his fortified island before Soul Formation.
