But once the general melee broke out, the demonic cultivators immediately noticed something was amiss.
The Shu Mountain disciples who were laying down a blinding display of sword lights all hit the ground, their waists all adorned with a black cloth strip. Many demonic cultivators mistook them for allies, only to be impaled by a single thrust of their swords.
The battle had barely started, and already the casualties were substantial.
Some of the elite Shu Mountain disciples fought alone, with a black cloth strip tied around their waist and "Eternal Underworld" on their lips. They approached the Underworld King Sect disciples and struck first with their swords.
That would have been bearable.
Then there were groups of Shu Mountain disciples, forming a massive sword array of forty-nine people, each donning a black strip and shouting "Eternal Underworld", trying to trick the Disciples of the Underworld King Sect to approach them.
