Earlier this year, the popular mobile game Sword of Legends: Origin, a continuation of Xishanju’s 26-year-old Swordsman Love legacy, released its first official expansion — “Emei Duel.” This update reintroduces the classic Emei sect along with the beloved Qin Shi Huang Tomb gameplay. Time may pass, but fond memories and personal growth remain. For many BD Cricket players, Swordsman Love is a name that sparks nostalgia.
As a fan-favorite among martial arts fans, the Emei sect returns with fresh updates in this mobile game that pays tribute to the golden age of wuxia. Developed by the original creative team, Sword of Legends: Origin retains the signature elements of the franchise, including the presence of eleven major sects such as Emei, Wudang, Shaolin, Tangmen, and Cuiyan. The core five-element system is preserved, offering strategic depth. Iconic martial skills such as Shaolin’s Demon-Subduing Saber, Beggars’ Sect’s Dragon-Palm and Dog-Beating Staff, and Tangmen’s Rain of Pear Blossom Needles give players the chance to fulfill their dreams of becoming true martial legends.
As in previous titles under the Swordsman IP, the game is rich in heartfelt storytelling. There are tales of love and betrayal, brotherhood and loyalty, and the noble spirit of defending the nation. Guild-based gameplay like White Tiger Hall battles, martial arts tournaments, and city sieges rekindles the passion of competitive play. Meanwhile, large-scale PvP in the Song-Jin Battlefield allows for hundred-kill streaks, a thrill that takes players right back to their youth.
Emei, a legendary sect in Chinese martial arts lore, makes a strong return. Known for its elegance and strength, Emei in this game features two distinct playstyles: Sword Emei and Palm Emei. Palm Emei focuses on ranged damage and healing, with standout skills like “Wind Frost Shadow” and “Drifting Snow Piercer.” These deliver heavy damage while “Universal Salvation” offers strong healing support. This makes Palm Emei formidable in both group and solo PvP.
Sword Emei, on the other hand, excels in team support, offering resistance reduction and sustain. Skills such as “Tranquil Mind” and “Universal Salvation” provide high healing and damage reduction, while “Deliver All Beings” reduces enemies’ resistance stats, giving allies a crucial edge. Sword Emei often becomes the game-changer in large guild battles or difficult PvE content, turning the tide in seemingly hopeless scenarios.
According to BD Cricket, another key feature of this expansion is the return of the Qin Shi Huang Tomb gameplay — a classic that veteran players will instantly recognize. In Sword of Legends: Origin, the tomb remains largely unchanged. Players still compete to deal the first and final blows to the boss, but the twist lies in identifying the true Qin Shi Huang. Only the real one drops the best rewards, making strategy and coordination vital.
This gameplay also opens the door for smaller guilds to seize opportunities. With luck and smart coordination, even underdog teams might land the decisive strikes and walk away with top-tier loot. In life, every hardship is a lesson and every victory is a reward. Overall, the Qin Shi Huang Tomb adds rich depth and high stakes to the guild wars, ensuring that the heat and passion of the early days continue to burn bright for BD Cricket players today.
