Background[]

Zenith Brilliance's Spider[]

When the Bone Sage was at the height of his power, he passed down a pair of Blood Jade Spider to one of his disciples, Zenith Brilliance. After Zenith Brilliance and Zenith Yin betrayed the Bone Sage, Zenith Brilliance escaped to the Heavenly South through an ancient teleportation formation. Shortly after, he perished while meditating beside the teleportation formation. However, over the many years, his female Blood Jade Spider continued to grow. It is unknown if the male Blood Jade Spider died due to injuries from prior battle, from being consumed by the female spider, or if it died at all to begin with. However, by the time Han Li stumbled upon the cave containing the teleportation formation, the female spider had matured into a 4th grade Blood Jade Spider. After killing the spider, Han Li acquired 2 eggs,[3] which he later hatched.[2]

Blood Jade Spiders usually lay multiple eggs, but only 2 of them survived, forming a male and female pair. Later it is revealed by the Bone Sage that whenever a Blood Jade Spider successfully hatches from its egg, it is always accompanied by another Blood Jade Spider that hatches from another egg from that same batch of eggs. Essentially, without considering outside factors, Blood Jade Spider always hatch in pairs where one is a male and the other is a female. For the Blood Jade Spiders to progress in cultivation both of them should stay together.[4]

When the spiders hatch, Han Li names them Xiao Bai and [someone fill this up].

Subduing Immature Gold Devouring Beetles[]

Not long after, when Han Li escapes to the Scattered Star Seas, he chances upon a swarm of immature silver-shelled Gold Devouring Beetles in his cave on the Minor Expanse Island. Although his pair of spiders are still quite immature, they are able to subdue and capture the immature Gold Devouring Beetles.

Heavenvoid Hall[]

Later one of the Blood Jade Spider, Xiao Bai, is killed by Star Palace Elder in the Heavenvoid Hall while Han Li tries to retrieve the Heavenvoid Cauldron.[?]
