I’m trying to piece together everything i’ve read with what i’ve watched and what i understand about the…
Just to be clear, so people aren't too confused about Li Jie's illusion, no, they are not twins: Yuan Wuhuo and Yuan Xizai. They are Demon Hunters sent to retrieve the star stone. We don't know why Li Jie looks like Yuan Wuhuo yet.
People, whom I have clarified that this actually helps them cause having two Li Jie/Yuan Wuhuo on screen actually confuses them.
I said that Jiu Ying is the force behind the catastrophes, but that’s not entirely correct, right? The real…
Yes, it's the running theme we learn from episodes 1-5: what is "evil"? Cause technically, it was Wu Zhi Qi who caused all 3 catastrophes, in a way.
Even though each time WZQ was tricked in a way, and most likely could have been Jiu Ying's fault.
Like how we always thought it was Xiaowei's fault, even though he didn't commit those crimes. But he is not innocent either, cause his love talisman plays a role. In a way, he was tricked as well.
He was possessed by Jiu Ying, causing the hurricane catastrophes.
His being captured by the six-eyed butterfly demon causes Tian Di to explode.
He is the one who lured the WSG master away. I think this is one of the only big stretches, but I think WSG master could have stopped Weakended Jiyung from possessing WWY to kill everyone.
honestly i still can’t fully grasp about whats happening in the illusion arc😵💫
Here is a very simplistic answer that may help you. The arc itself is to continue world-building, build up the plot, and reveal the main villain.
Lu Wu Yi and Long Shen is back in time 1000 years ago, to learn about the events that happened. The important parts will be revealed, but think of it as the origin story of the villain.
Li Jie is back in time 150 years ago, which is a bit more confusing because there are 2 of them; they are not twins. He is in the body of Yuan Wu Huo's little brother, Yuan Xi Zai. We learn a bit more of the backstory of Yuan Wu Huo.
Wu Wang Yan and Wu Shi Guang are back in time 50 years ago. WSG is in the body of his father, and WWY is in the body of his mother. They will discover the tragedy of what happened to the flood dragon clan and learn a bit about the villain as well.
Me realizing only 14 episodes are left and we are already halfway through while more then half of our main cast…
Hopefully, they can tell the story they want in the next 14 episodes. But overall, the chemistry and why we should care about each lead are already solid!
Wow, after they entered the stone illusions, the drama has gotten more confusing.I hope i can get the answers…
I will attempt to clarify some of this.
1 WY having her fox power in the illusion is still a mystery. WS is actually using his father’s water ability; he is, after all, the chief of the flood dragon. Only WY somehow is able to use her original power. This could mean many things: the original DZ was actually a fox, or somehow had special power.
2 YWH, or Li Jie, is definitely the most confusing one. The Butterfly Demon and Li Jie were both trying to get out of the illusion. Li Jie is in Yuan Xi Zai's body, and the Butterfly Demon is in YWH. This really adds more context to YWH's backstory and the hidden identity of possible Li Jing. The Butterfly Demon simply wants to end the illusion and get out.
3 We don't know yet why the Butterfly Demon looks like YWH; it is still a mystery. Because we know there was an older YWH in the flashback with Ji Ling as Long Shen. CW, or Ji Ling, might not have the memories from when he was Yuan Xi Zai (these are guesses, as we don’t know at this point).
4 No clue.
5 The birth of WS is still shrouded in mystery. In episode 7, CW actually spoke about this with Bai Ze. Bai Ze asked if WS is the one we've been waiting for. CW replied, “you could say yes, but also no.” So CW knows something more about this.
What episode are you on ? up to the latest episode it does address some of the story so far.

Also OP also drop FoF, seem like he does not like GJM style
