* In [[Yu-Gi-Oh! - Episode 015|episode 15]], [[Yami Yugi]] uses this card during his Duel against [[PaniK]]. After summoning this card, Yugi activates this card's effect to increase the ATK of "[[Gaia the Dragon Champion]]" by 600 and Tribute it to fire "Gaia the Dragon Champion" at PaniK's "[[Castle of Dark Illusions]]". This causes Yugi to take damage equal to half the ATK of "Gaia the Dragon Champion", but it also destroys the castle's 'Flotation Ring'. After Yugi ended his turn, the effect of "[[Swords of Revealing Light]]" expired, and that caused the "Castle of Dark Illusions" to fall down and crush PaniK's monsters ("[[Barox]]", "[[Dark Chimera]]", "[[King of Yamimakai]]" and "[[Metal Guardian]]"). "[[Yellow Luster Shield|Chaos Shield]]" then inflicts damage to PaniK equal to the DEF of "Castle of Dark Illusions", winning Yugi the Duel.
