On the Demon Battlefield, you’ve already had a taster of the raids you can expect in Swords of Legends Online’s new update. Very soon you’ll be able to charge into the second raid with your friends. Unique and sinister fiends are only waiting for the chance to separate you from your mortal coil in the Realm of Hallucinations. Form a band of 10 to 20 intrepid heroes and face the challenges lurking in this raid:
Shade Cen Ying
Cen Ying is a member of the Natural History Academy who has long been researching the art of creating formations in ancient writings. She uses the knowledge she has gleaned from these wise tomes in combat, placing formation stones which grant her an invigorating buff. She’s also highly adept at using her staff.
Shade Yun Wuyue
Don’t be fooled by her innocent appearance. Yun Wuyue is in truth a colossal, nightmarish demon, who has lived in secret among the people of Shenzhou for millennia. A shapeshifter, she can change her form at will, even invading the dreams of other creatures.
Shade Ji Xuanyuan
Ji Xuanyuan is a gifted Archer. Using his ‘Black Horn’, he can land arrows with incredible precision. Manipulated by the biyouji, he sees the students of the Realm of Light as demons and attacks them. Continuously absorbing demonic qi, he falls further and further to evil.
Shade Beiluo
Beiluo is also suffering from the demonic qi from the Blade Demon protecting him. He is actually a giant demon with the blood of the demon hunters in his veins. The biyouji are fanning the flames of his hatred for the students of the Qin League who are pushing into the Realm of Light. Beiluo believes them to be demons and fights against them with his demon hunters. He is a gifted master with the sword, and his skills with throwing daggers are just as feared.
Difficulties
The raid is initially available in easy and normal difficulties. For all those who love a challenge and want to pick up more loot, higher difficulty levels will also be added later.
Grab your gear, rally your friends, and don’t lose your heads in the Realm of Hallucinations!

New Raid: Demon Battlefield
An brand-new exciting raid is coming to Swords of Legends Online – the Demon Battlefield! There you can expect to encounter demonic fiends from your worst nightmares. Form a group of 10 to 20 intrepid heroes and stare death in the face as you confront the dangers lying in wait for you!
The Demon Battlefield
Tianlu City, whose name means ‘let the light in’, is the capital of the immortals. Countless monsters have been defeated here over the millennia. Under the influence of the biyouji, the evil spirits of these monsters have now risen once more, plunging this breathtaking location into chaos and oblivion. If valiant heroes don’t appear soon, it is entirely possible that the demons will conquer Tianlu for themselves – a terrible loss for the whole of Shenzhou!
Dark Plume DemonBrave immortals who venture through the demon-infested wilderness will eventually cross paths with the Dark Plume Demon. This curious beast is the highest among the flying demons who once ruled the skies over Demonbones. Now, under the scheming influence of the biyouji, it has infiltrated the Realm of Light, bringing death and destruction in its wake.
Blade DemonWarriors who find themselves confronting Mistblade Demons have a difficult task ahead of them. These mutated Shades are incredibly strong and extremely wily in combat. They like to lie in ambush in the shadows of other demons, waiting for the opportune moment to strike.
DifficultiesThe raid is initially available in easy and normal difficulties. For all those who love a challenge and want to pick up more loot, higher difficulty levels will also be added later.
Hone your weapons, rally your friends, and slice your path across the Demon Battlefield!
Patch Notes: Version 2.1.3.
Patchnotes 2.1.3
Story & Zones: War Domain – Realm of Destroyed Evil
Once the Realm of Light consisted of two separate planes: the Peace Domain above and the War Domain below. These two domains existed in different times and did not interfere with one another – until the Biyoujis disturbed the balance between them. Rifts opened allowing demons travel through time and space and flood the Peace Domain.
The Realm of Light is connected to three areas of the War Domain revealing the Gujian III crossover. The domains will open after each other Thursday until July 24th.
War Domain: Demon Battlefield
Near Tianlu City, the Capital of Fairies - there is a beautiful grassland surrounded by mountains. One thousand years ago demons fell here. No wonder the Fairies called their city in their language “Let the Light in.” Yet – today – Biyoujis threaten this land again.
Instance
War Domain: Demon Battlefields (Gujian III) - Easy, Normal Mode
Thanks to the Qin League’s Novices the Draco were able to fight back the Biyoujis. Yet the threat is not over. A flock of various monsters that were affected by the Biyouji are spreading chaos. They need to be taken care of immediately.
The Dracos are asking the Immortal Disciples once more for help. It is time to put an end to this. Players who receive their signal gather and bring peace to the Dragonstar District!
