One vs Four!

Ezio put the dagger he was hiding behind him in the Mysterious Room with a will. Since he could use the Mysterious Room as a Spatial Artifact, he could make things vanish and appear in a matter of seconds. Normally, cultivators would waste a fraction of a second to touch these spatial items and experts could see these minute movements. Ezio, on the other hand, could put in and pull out the dagger without a delay.

His left hand was still behind his back, and he charged with the golden wind coiling his body. His speed multiplied more than once and his eyes narrowed. The four men were taken aback when they felt the demonic aura that appeared out of nowhere. If at first, they didn't take this intruder seriously, now, they were as alert as they could be.

As soon as Ezio arrived at the weakest of the four, he stabbed his empty hand towards the man's head. Middle of the attack the Tenebras Lux appeared out of nowhere with a blinding flash. This was precisely the second ability of the dagger, Radiant Nirvana. When appeared, Tenebras Lux could unleash a blinding light. Since Ezio wanted it to, the blade shone with great luster and blinded the enemy who was watching this mysterious boy with full attention.

Blinded by the sudden light, the man was helpless to counter-attack and was waiting to be pierced. But the Captain wasn't as inexperienced as these mobs. With a sudden thrust of the spear, the air pushed away like an air cannon and aimed at the Ezio and the blind men.

Using a handspring on his left hand, Ezio started to twist his body and rocketed into the air.

"Hah, jumping into the air while surrounded. Courting death." Captain smirked and swapped his spear to now seemingly helpless airborne Ezio.

But to the captain's surprise, now upside down, Ezio kicked the thick branch of the tree to gain momentum once again and dashed towards the Captain with astonishing speed. Because the captain was in the middle of the attack, he couldn't defend himself and was helpless. The dagger arrived at his shoulder and was about to pierce from there with great momentum, but the Captain was an expert at the peak of Qi Solidification Realm. How could he be weak?

He jumped back even when was attacked suddenly, and two phantoms appeared on top of him. The first one was a pole. It had an orange hue around it. The second one was an avatar holding a spear with fire blazing at the tip. It was from the Third Curtain.

Ezio could easily say that the Captain had no talent. His first Signium was from the second Curtain and the following was from the third. This was as far as he could go. So despite being much stronger than him, Ezio didn't mind at all. The brute force didn't win battles, techniques and tactics did.

His first Signium was from the peak of the 5th Curtain. It allowed him to move at extreme speeds. It bestowed Wind Elemental abilities, enhancing his senses and muscle power. It wasn't trash level like a burning spear.

Ezio once again crouched to the ground and pulled one hand behind himself. In the next second, the dagger vanished. He started to dash towards the Captain with the wind behind his back and his legs kicking the ground, Wolf Stance! His speed was so fast, that even the Captain was baffled for a second. When he came to himself, the spear in his hand started to burn with flames.

Ezio jumped into the air like a wolf and howled. The wind at the tip of his mouth blasted like an air cannon towards the Captain. This was his first Signium Skill, Star Crushing Howl! The Captain's posture was broken by the air cannon and his legs started to shiver like a prayer. Other soldiers and the woman weren't any different. Anyone who heard the wolf cry felt their legs turning mush. But the Captain took the brunt of the howl.

When Ezio was above the Captain, Tenebras Lux appeared once again in her full glory. The light pierced the eyes of the onlookers and this time, even the captain was too stunned to do anything. The blade landed on his shoulder and cut a deep wound.

Rolling with the now falling Captain, Ezio got some distance and looked at the trio. Compared to the captain, the rest of the three weren't as dangerous.

His right hand that was holding the dagger was on his back, and his left hand, and feet were on the ground. An Azure Blue Wolf silhouette with bloodthirsty eyes appeared and looked down on the trio making them take a step back.

Ezio was using The Azure Wolf King's Eternal Fang from the start. He won this prize when he acquired Seamless Body together with the Golden Wind Aura. At first, he thought the manual was average because of its name. But how could a manual prized together with the Seventh Wind of Golden Roc be average?

The more he cultivated the manual the more he realized how great it was. The speed and strength boost the technique was giving were much, much better than anything he had seen in manuals of the sect.

Azure Wolf King's eyes shone and Ezio disappeared from where he was standing. In the next second, he was between the trio, and with a booming thrust, the dagger cut off the hands of the trio in one swap. Sudden pain and fear broke the trio's knees and they started to bowl on the ground like beaten dogs. Not giving any chance for them to stand up, Ezio knocked all four of them cold and tied them with the vines he found in the forest, before turning to the woman who was now watching him in amazement.

He approached the woman with his signature, soothing smile, and offered her his free hand to help her rise to her feet. The woman was fearful at first, but maybe the smile or honest eyes of the boy helped him to relax a little and grabbed the helping hand. Her wobbling legs weren't enough to keep her standing, thus Ezio grabbed her waist to support her. The woman shivered at first but the soothing aura seeped through her body from the waist and the feeling of protesting vanished before it even sprouted in her damaged mind.
