"Come at me. I'm ready!"
Jing Hongchen showed no trace of fear. It was merely a bit of hardship; as long as his Martial Soul could transform, what did dying once matter?

Jing Hongchen happily did as instructed.
The method for consuming Aromatic Silk Beauty was similar to that of Aromatic Silk Beauty: both required eating the flower's central stamen.

"Teacher, don't refine it yet. Take the Dragonheart Grass as well, then gather the two medicinal powers together."
"Yes!"
Jing Hongchen immediately picked up the Immortal Herb that seemed to be covered in scales and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Ah—"
Unlike the Aromatic Silk Beauty, the moment the Dragonheart Grass entered his throat, an immense surge of energy made Jing Hongchen's body swell by a full size.
It was not the kind of swelling caused by using a soul skill. At that moment, Jing Hongchen felt as if someone had forcibly shoved a huge refrigerator down his throat. He could explode at any second.
