Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty's first story DLC, Battle of Zhongyuan, is finally out, giving players a fresh new reason to jump back into the game. Much like any other Team Ninja souls-like expansion, the Battle of Zhongyuan DLC comes packed with new levels, enemy types, bosses, weapons, and much, much more. The DLC also serves as the next chapter in Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty's story.

The Battle of Zhongyuan DLC features 10 brand new quests, including the main story as well as side missions. Although you will naturally get access to 9 of these quests as you progress through each, the final and arguably the toughest side quest is locked behind completing an optional task in the DLC.

Here's a comprehensive guide on unlocking the final optional quest, "Beyond the Heavens," in Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty's Battle of Zhongyuan DLC.

The Beyond the Heavens quest comes at a recommended level of 107 on standard difficulty (Crouching Dragon). The quest is essentially a gauntlet of boss fights, where you will go up against increasingly difficult enemies until you reach the final boss. The quest is pretty much designed as an end-game optional mission to test out your build and farm Genuine Qi and high-rarity weapons.
