All Oboro Relics
There are five Oboro Relics in the first stage of Shinobi: Art of Vengeance. To unlock all of them, you’ll need the Sword Dive Ningi.
Oboro Relic #1
From the Village Ruins Shrine, backtrack to the earlier section until you reach a small wooden tower. You’ll spot a Yokai Barrier on the ground.
Use Sword Dive to break the barrier and loot the chest inside for the first Oboro Relic.
Oboro Relic #2
Start from the Antechamber Shrine and keep heading right. In the next room, you’ll have to defeat a group of enemies.
After clearing them out, continue right through a narrow passage. More enemies will appear along the way.
At the end of the passage, open the chest to collect the second Oboro Relic.
Oboro Relic #3
From the Attic Shrine, head down to the lower section with the burning floor. You’ll see a Yokai Barrier near the middle of the room on the floor. Use Sword Dive to break through.
Run up the wall past the Grim Reaper and you’ll spot three chests. The middle chest contains the next Oboro Relic.
Oboro Relic #4
From the Collapsed Bridge Shrine, continue forward until you reach a large chamber with a burning cauldron in the background.
Head to the upper level of the room and move to the far left side. Drop down to a ledge below to find a chest containing the fourth Oboro Relic.
Oboro Relic #5
From the last Oboro Relic, continue onward until you reach the outside. You’ll spot a chest on the ground. Loot it to claim the final Oboro Relic. This one is practically unmissable.
All Secret Chests
There are two Secret Chests in Oboro Village. Both can be reached easily from the Attic Shrine. However, you’ll need both the Sword Dive and Ninja Claws Ningi to collect them.
Secret Chest #1
From the Shrine, head left into the next room. Navigate a parkour section using Ninja Claws.
At the end of the segment, you’ll find the Secret Chest containing the Kunai Burst Ninpo.
Secret Chest #2
From the Shrine, head right and you’ll spot a Yokai Barrier on the ground. Break it using the Sword Dive Ningi.
Loot the Secret Chest to grab a Max Kunai Boost upgrade.
All Elite Squads
There are two Elite Squad encounters in Oboro Village. Clearing them both gives you the Kunai Killer Amulet.
Elite Squad #1
From the Antechamber Shrine, climb up to the top platform. Double jump and dash to reach a ledge on the left side.
Break the Yokai Barrier using Cannon Punch and head inside. You’ll spot the Elite Squad encounter symbol on a platform inside the room.
Elite Squad #2
From the Collapsed Bridge Shrine, head left. Continue forward through the passage and navigate a parkour section that requires both the Ninja Hook and Ninja Claws Ningi.
At the end, you’ll find the Elite Squad encounter symbol.
Ankou Rift
The Ankou Rift in Oboro Village can be accessed from the Attic Shrine. Head down to the lower section from the Shrine, and you’ll spot a Yokai Barrier in the flames. Break through it using the Sword Dive Ningi.
You’ll find the Grim Reaper waiting beside the Ankou Rift.
