Reminder:

1. If you have yet to bind your game account to a third-party account, please do so to prevent unnecessary data losses.

2. After the server data merge, the original server accesses will be retained, so there is no need to make any changes when you login.

Game data after the merge:

1. Login and recharge

(1) Your account will remain unchanged and all character data will be retained.

(2) Your login method will remain unchanged, so you can still login to the game using the original method.

(3) Your recharge method will remain unchanged, so you can still recharge through the original channels.

2. Multiple characters on one account

If you have more than one character on a third-party account that is involved in the data merge, your character data will not be affected. You can login to the server used before the data merge to access the character on that original server.

For example, after SEA1 and SEA2 are merged, you can access the character on SEA1 when you login to SEA1 and access the character on SEA2 when you login to SEA2.

3. Duplicate character and sect names

(1). If there are more than one character with the same nickname, the player with the highest Power will keep the original name. For the other characters, a number (such as 01 or 02) will be affixed to their nicknames. If duplicate names still exist after adding the numbers, additional numbers (such as 0101) will be added to the name. Because of this, all players whose character nicknames are changed this way will get a free chance to change the nicknames of their characters.

(2) If there are more than one sect with the same name, the sect with the highest ranking after the data merge will keep the name. For the other sects, a number (such as 01 or 02) will be affixed to their sect names. For sects whose names are changed this way, their leaders will receive 2,000 Ingots as sect name change fund.

4. Funds Benefits for All

After the data merge, the number of buyers of Growth Funds, Adventure Funds, Fairyland Funds and Realm Funds of the servers being merged will be added up to produce a total merged server count.

5. Arena

Arena rankings will be reset and re-sorted according to server number and ranking.

Example: the rankings of SEA1 and SEA2 after the merge will be:

Rank 1: The player with the higher Power between rank 1 of SEA1 and rank 1 of SEA2

Rank 2: The player with the lower Power between rank 1 of SEA1 and rank 1 of SEA2

Rank 3: The player with the higher Power between rank 2 of SEA1 and rank 2 of SEA2

Rank 4: The player with the lower Power between rank 2 of SEA1 and rank 2 of SEA2

So on and so forth.

6. 3-star clear record

The records will be regenerated and the record of the first player to clear the stage will be shown.

7. Monthly sign-in event

(1) The progress of the sign-in event remains unchanged.

(2) The rewards for this month's sign-in event will still be the same rewards before the server merge. Starting from next month, rewards for the merged servers will be kept consistent.

8. Time-limited events start time adjustment

The start time of East Sea Hunting, Pet Praying, Ethereal Wheel, and Xihe's Realm will be based on the server who goes live earlier.

For example, on the day of server merge, if the time-limited event on SEA1 is East Sea Hunting and Pet Praying on SEA2, then the time-limited event after server merge will just be East Sea Hunting. Pet Praying will become inaccessible.

9. Internal Demon Leaderboard

Internal Demon Leaderboard will be re-ranked based on the merged data. The rewards of sect and individual rankings will be settled based on the rankings after server merge.
