Qin Fengming looked at the little beast before him, its entire body now covered in golden fur, and his eyes were filled with delight.
For Jin Shi to advance straight from three Soul Infants to five Soul Infants had of course not happened overnight. It was closely related to everything it had experienced over the years.
Back then, in Qinggu Space, Jin Shi had devoured a vast number of essence souls and ghostly beings, condensing its Third Soul Infant.
