• Xiao Yi Xian recalled that the Ancient Insect Control Technique described Gold-Eating Insects as nearly extinct, and realized she had found them in a Jar.

Xiao Yi Xian obtained Gold-Eating Insects but worried she could not find the resources to raise them, so she asked Ye Yun about obtaining spiritual energy.
