One problem is that you are resetting the $\left|z\right\rangle$ register after applying the Controlled X(z, y) operation. Right before you reset, your $\left|z\right\rangle$ register is entangled with the other two registers, such that resetting in that way collapses any superposition on the $\left|x\right\rangle \left|y\right\rangle$ registers. While that'...

Here is another way to flip the phase of only |0...0⟩:
using (ancilla = Qubit()){
(ControlledOnInt(0, X))(register, ancilla); // Bit flips the ancilla to |1⟩ if register is |0...0⟩
Z(ancilla); // Ancilla phase (and therefore whole register phase) becomes -1 if above condition is satisfied
(ControlledOnInt(0, X))...

ControlledOnInt is a library function which applies a specified operation (in this case SetRegisterToInt) to the target register only if the control register is in a state that encodes the given integer. Internally it does the following:
convert the given integer to an array of bits (in little-endian format I think);
applies X gate to each qubit that ...
