Shi Jiangbai is a highly ranked Hidden Dragon Institute student who supports the human expedition inside the Goldwater Ruins.

Biography

Goldwater Ruins

Shi Jiangbai reaches the students’ stone-mountain refuge with Feng Yigu and Wu Xiao and joins the force assembled against a purple-scaled Demonic Beast. By applying his Heart-Devouring Curse to blood taken from the target, he weakens it enough to make a meaningful contribution despite serving in a support role rather than as a primary attacker. (Chapters 298–300)

He later helps the human students consider how to confirm Danba’s movements without sacrificing a vulnerable scout. When Zhu Anyi subsequently encounters Danba, Shi Jiangbai and Fan Ruzhi risk themselves to rescue him from immediate death and carry him back, although even Su Chen’s treatment cannot prevent Zhu Anyi from dying of his wounds. (Chapters 304–314)

Appearance and personality

No distinctive physical description is provided. Shi Jiangbai is cooperative, tactically minded, and willing to risk his own safety to extract a wounded fellow student from danger. (Chapters 304, 314)

Abilities and cultivation

His Heart-Devouring Insect bloodline comes from Lingnan. Its innate Heart-Devouring Curse requires the target’s blood and torments and weakens the victim; against the purple-scaled Demonic Beast, its effect reduces the beast’s strength by roughly another fifth. (Chapter 300)

Relationships

Shi Jiangbai fights as part of He Yuandong’s assembled student group and works alongside other support specialists. He and Fan Ruzhi jointly save Zhu Anyi from immediate death after an encounter with Danba. (Chapters 299–314)

Items

No named personal item is identified. Blood from a target is a required medium for his curse, but the corpus does not associate him with a particular vessel or tool for obtaining it. (Chapter 300)
