I hope this is the correct forum
As this is late in the game this will probably have some sort of generic spoiler included, so I hope not to ruin anything for those still playing.

In chapter 6, I have been to Baidi Village, Demon Valley, Fairy Spring, White Sand Village, Tangled Web Cave.
I cleared out the boss in Fairy Spring and all the chests in Demon Valley. I proceeded to Tangled Web Cave and gained access. I took all of the loot and killed every spider I could find. The last spider I fought actually ran from battle; I didn't know if this was intentional or not, but I could not find it again in the cave even leaving and reentering. Assuming this was the norm I went back to town and saved the game, then to the mirage of the spider blocking the way north, but it still gives me the same blah blah mirage text this is a barrier to block people etc and it does not let me through.
I went back to demon valley and to the towns and while not thorough I did not find any new text or the spiders again; I am now stuck and do not know how to proceed. Please tell me my game didn't glitch out because my last backup save is in chapter 4 >_<
Any help is appreciated
