Yang Jing, in the guise of the Starfall True Demon, burrowed deep underground.
He knew that to beings of the Nascent Soul Level, a single Xuyu Coral was far more valuable than a Great Celestial Demon at the Golden Core Realm. The moment the Tribulation Sea Old Demon mentioned its existence, the Moon Demon King would immediately change his attitude.
Of course, he wasn't about to pin all his hopes on a Nascent Soul Demon King.
Yang Jing had devised an escape plan long ago, back when he first chose the Starfall True Demon's body.
It was a ploy of substitution—the classic strategy of the Golden Cicada Sheds Its Shell.
While the fierce battle raged on the surface, Yang Jing seized the opportunity. With the two Nascent Soul Level beings completely preoccupied, he instantly released the Starfall True Demon from his Inner World.
