(Doton No Jutsu) - Earth Release Technique
Rank: D
Type: Attack/Defence
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 10
Damage Points: 20
Descripton: Creates small pillars of earth, small tools, and small shields of earth
*I mold Doton chakra in my hands. I then slam the ground with both of my palms, channeling concentrated chakra through the earth, and causing a small earth pillar to rise beside senpai*
Hm. Seems basic enough.
*Wanting to see what else the jutsu was capable of, I then mold more chakra. Mud excretes out of my hands and forearms, and I visualize the creating of ninja tools. A kunai shape forms from my left hand, which I then twirl and hold in a reverse grip, noting the properties of the jutsu, such as its weight and composition. In my right hand, a small, disc-shaped shield forms. I hold the kunai and shield as if I were a knight, humorously pretending that the pillar I made earlier is an opponent. I slash at the pillar a few times*
Heh... this is awesome, senpai!
(Doton: Shinju Zanshu no Jutsu) - Earth Release: Double Suicide Decapitation Technique
Rank: D
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 10
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user, emerging from the ground below the target area, pulls down the opponent so that only their head is above ground. Unable to move, the opponent can easily be decapitated or tortured.
*after finishing exploring the possibilities of the first jutsu, I try out the second one that senpai gives me. Focusing my Doton chakra throughout my entire body, I suddenly feel a fierce, deliberate sinking sensation as I burrow into the ground. It's almost as if I fell into quicksand. After getting accustomed to the feeling, I tunnel through the ground, and with both hands, I reach for a training dummy above ground, and I emerge, pulling the dummy down until its head is the only visible part left. I dust off my uniform.*
... Like that, senpai? Oh wait... may I try something out?
*thinking about the first jutsu, I mold Doton chakra once more. A pillar erupts quickly, similar to the first time, but in this instance, I tried to focus my chakra in such a way that it causes the pillar to emerge at an angle. The pillar hits the dummy's head, causing it to tear. The dummy's head was nearly decapitated by the speed of the emerging earth pillar*
Good. So with these we're actually done with D ranks.
(Doton: Gansetsukon) - Earth Release: Rock Section Cane
Rank: D
Type: Supplementary/Offense
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 10
Damage Points: 20
Description: This technique allows the user to take a small chunk of rock and turn it into the shape of a staff. The user can then use it as a melee weapon or throw it with pinpoint accuracy at their opponent. A variation of this technique allows the user to create several staffs and launch them at the target, but with less accuracy.
( Doton: Iwa Rendan ) - Earth Release: Rock Barrage
Rank: D
Type: Offensive
Range: Short – Mid
Chakra cost: 10
Damage points: 20
Description: The user will concentrate their chakra into their arm and then release their chakra creating a ring of rocks that are then flung at the opponent.
So, with both you manipulate objects from your hand. The exception is the first one for which you need a rock which you can grab from the ground. Other than that, in the first you manipulate the rock while with the second you create a rocks out of nothing, your chakra. Again good and quick close combat jutsus because of their range.
Aww, sweet! *slowly feeling more motivated to keep training*

The user can then use it as a melee weapon or throw it with pinpoint accuracy at their opponent. A variation of this technique allows the user to create several staffs and launch them at the target, but with less accuracy.
*Looking at the ground, I find a particularly good-looking rock. Picking it up, I then channel my Doton chakra from my hands into the rock. It warps, taking the shape of a staff. I twirl it around, playing with it. Then, taking the stance of a javelin thrower, I then throw the spear towards the head of the dummy I ha previously incapacitated. The dummy's head is ripped off*
( Doton: Iwa Rendan ) - Earth Release: Rock Barrage
Rank: D
Type: Offensive
Range: Short – Mid
Chakra cost: 10
Damage points: 20
Description: The user will concentrate their chakra into their arm and then release their chakra creating a ring of rocks that are then flung at the opponent.
*after playing around with the staffs, I move on to the next Jutsu. Concentrating my chakra on my hands again, I then manage to create a small ring of rocks in my hands. Their size is approximately that of large pebbles. I then proceed to pelt the head of the dummy, adding insult to injury. Ironically, dummies can't feel pain, whether emotional or physical*
... Like that, senpai? Oh, and I have two questions.
1. For a combo Jutsu, couldn't I just use Iwa Rendan to create the rocks, and then use Gansetsukon to turn those rocks into staffs? It would save the time of trying to find a suitable rock, and I'm sure those precious seconds are essential.
2. For Iwa Rendan, the rocks I create... Can I infuse them with chakra, a la Killer B's "pencil of death" technique, to enhance the capabilities of the Jutsu? Like their piercing power and damage, etc...
Aww, sweet! *slowly feeling more motivated to keep training*

Gotcha exactly where I wanted. See, always make sure to look the techniques up on narutopedia.com There you can find more information and images to the techniques. See, the rocks you create are actually not pebbles but massive rocks that swirl around you.
You must be registered for see images
So for both your questions the answer is no. Now try again.
Oh, whoops! Yeah, the description threw me off. I'll be sure to reference the wiki when needed!
*I try Doton: Iwa Rendan once more. This time, I focus my chakra intensely, visualizing large rocks that form a ring. Soon, large boulders materialize around my body, forming a floating ring. Satisfied, I then proceed to hurl these rocks using my chakra towards the nearby lake. They make large splashes*

It's cool. The descriptions could've been better too, but since most of these low rank techniques aren't used I guess they thought they weren't so important. Any questions?
No you can't. Now this is the rest of method one. I managed get my hands on the list
(Doton: Dorosandan) – Earth Release: Mudshot
Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 15
Damage points: 10
Description: The user spits a thick globule of mud at the target. If aimed correctly, it can blind the target's vision and choke them. It can also be used to create a sticky patch on the ground.
Simple put, allows you to spit a sphere of mud.
(Doton: Kengan no Jutsu) - Earth Release: Fist Rock Technique
Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 15
Damage points: 30
Description: After performing the snake → Seal of Confrontation and then by encasing their arm in rock, the user can deal a powerful hardened punch against an opponent while being protected from direct contact with their target. If necessary, the weight of the rock can be increased to further increase the punch's destructive power through the Earth Release: Added Weight Technique or the Earth Release: Super Added Weight Technique.
Similar to the first jutsu, but it's now specifically to create a glove of rock.
(Doton: Iwa Bunshin) - Earth Release: Rock Clone Technique
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: N/A
Description: The user creates their clone out of stone. Unlike other types of clones the rock clones don’t disappear after being defeated but rather crumble like rubble. These clones can also be used to create a clone of other people than themselves but do not take on the abilities of the copied person.
Like before, you can create the clones from the ground or from your body, like they're coming from your skin. Quite a cool effect These can't use jutsus.
(Doton: Fukusuu no Dorosandan) - Earth Release: Multiple Mudshot Technique
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Short - Long
Chakra cost: 20
Damage point: 40
Description: This jutsu is basically a widespread version of the Mudshot Technique; allowing the user to fire at multiple targets.
Same as I taught you before, only it allows you to fire multiple globules.
(Doton no Yoroi) - Earth Release Armor
Rank: B
Type: Defensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20 (-15 per turn to remain active)
Damage points: N/A (+10 to taijutsu moves)
Description: This Technique coats the users body with stones, making them much more resistant to attacks, at the cost of their speed. Whilst using this technique, the user can even change their appearance, but once the technique is either defeated or worn off the users original appearance is shown. The user whilst in this armor is resistant to A rank normal ninjutsu but is vulnerable to Lightning Techniques.
Similar to the first, specialized in making armor, a better and larger one. I reckon you can change the armor design a bit, something like small spikes coming from your shoulders would be cool if you're shoulder slamming someone, for example. This encases your entire body in rock, as if creating a relatively thin layer over your body. But other than increasing your weight, thus taking a few nudges from speed, it doesn't hinder movement, as would have been expected. Though if we deal with master level taijutsu, if you have the exact same mastery as your opponent, using this jutsus you will be stronger and more resistant while your opponent will be faster and more flexible, but to the outside eye, the changes would be almost imperceptible.
(Doton: KageBunshin no Jutsu) – Earth Release: Shadow Clone Technique
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 25
Damage points: N/A
Description: This technique creates a shadow clone made of mud of the user. Since its made of mud, it can continue to reform and mould itself back to its original shape. After reverting to mud, it can hold the opponent in place. The user can create upto three clones. They can also use up to C rank earth techniques.
Same as clones above, this ones can use jutsus though.
(Doton: Doryuheki) - Earth Release: Earth Style Wall Jutsu
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user will first perform the Tiger → Hare → Boar → Dog and then creates a solid wall of earth as a form of defence. Chakra is either converted to earth within the body and then spat out to form the wall or the user can manipulate pre-existing earth to form the wall. The earth then instantly rises up and takes form. The barrier itself is also coated with chakra, making its strength incomparable to that of a normal mud wall. Because of the earth's special characteristics, the wall is highly resistant against, for instance, fire and water. Hizuren Sarutobi spits mud from his mouth to perform the jutsu whilst Kakashi creates a wall composed of bulldog sculptures to box-in Pain.
Allow you to spit mud which will quickly harden into a large wall.
(Doton: Iwa no Gōremu) – Earth Release: Stone Golem
Rank: A
Type: Offensive
Range: Short – Mid
Chakra cost: 30
Damage points: 60
Description: The user expels a large creature composed of stone from his mouth. The rock golem has a fair amount of stamina and brute strength, being able to bite and tear off flesh with its mouth and hands respectively. If used from above the target then the user can use the earth golem to drop down onto the opponent like a bomb and crush them.
Allows you to spit out a golem. Can't use jutsus.
(Doton: Hanridoryūheki) - Earth Release: Flowing Earth Wall of 10,000 Miles
Rank: A
Type: Defensive
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra cost: 30
Damage points: N/A
Damage points: The user and his clones simultaneously perform hand seals Ram - Snake and expel a stream of mud from their mouths, which solidify into multiple columns of earth. These grow from the floor and together form a hardened wall of defence, with great height, extent and length. This technique can be enhanced with the Lava Release: Rubber Wall making it equal to an S rank level defence however Lightning S rank can easily break through the wall.
Note: Can only be used with a minimum of 3 shadow clones.
Similar to the wall jutsu I taught you above, now stronger.
(Koka no Jutsu) - Hardening Technique
Rank: S
Type: Offense/Defence/Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 40
Damage Points: N/A
Description: By utilizing earth-based chakra, the user creates armour made of rock that encases their body. The armour can also be used to create extendable weapons to strike a target with.
Same as above, stronger armor, the difference is this armor completely hinders one's movement, as you become attached to the ground. You are able to move your upper body fairly quick, allowing you a somewhat increased range, but still in short range.
(Doton: Dai iwa Kyojin no Jutsu) - Earth Release: Great Stone Golem Technique
Rank: S
Type: Offensive, Supplementary
Range: Short - Long
Chakra cost: 40
Damage points: 80
Description: The user creates a even larger and stronger version of Earth Release: Stone Golem Technique
Same as above, stronger.
I gotta admit the explanations are not mine, but are from Lili-Chwan sensei, which makes them even more valuable. Note that you can't yet use the S ranks because we haven't finished the training completely. Only once you finish a complete rank you can start with the next one, but because of the nature of this training, things are a bit complicated. Either way, we'll be finished soon, so you have nothing to worry.
Do you mind if I perform multiple jutsu of the same rank in a single post? That way, we can get things rolling.
(Doton: Dorosandan) – Earth Release: Mudshot
Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 15
Damage points: 10
Description: The user spits a thick globule of mud at the target. If aimed correctly, it can blind the target's vision and choke them. It can also be used to create a sticky patch on the ground.
Simple put, allows you to spit a sphere of mud.
*molding Earth chakra in my mouth, I feel the sensation of my cheeks puffing up, due to the mud gathering inside. I apply a shape transformation principle to mold the mud into a dense sphere. Then, opening my mouth, I spit out a sizable sphere of mud between senpai and myself. It splatters, leaving a small sticky puddle between us*
*looking at the puddle* Ewww... ever get that weird taste of crap in your mouth, senpai?
(Doton: Kengan no Jutsu) - Earth Release: Fist Rock Technique

If necessary, the weight of the rock can be increased to further increase the punch's destructive power through the Earth Release: Added Weight Technique or the Earth Release: Super Added Weight Technique.
Similar to the first jutsu, but it's now specifically to create a glove of rock.
*after wiping my mouth, I then perform the seals Snake → Seal of Confrontation, and rocks start to build up in my left hand, encasing it in a glove shape. I note how it is heavy, and try to compensate for the weight by shifting my center of balance. I take a few wild swings in the air as senpai watches*
*while trying it out* Wow, senpai! This is pretty badass... I can't wait to learn to encase myself fully in Earth armor!
Do you mind if I perform multiple jutsu of the same rank in a single post? That way, we can get things rolling.

What I means was that you can't use them in battle as of yet, however you can and are encouraged to explain and give your opinions on all of these jutsu.
Also add your opinion on when it would be acceptable to use these certain jutsu and how would you act if these were to be used against you.
Oh, and you don't need to perform them. If you find any questions related to the jutsus, feel free to ask me.
Oh, ok! I suppose I'll start from the B-ranks since I already covered the C-ranks in my previous post!
(Doton: Iwa Bunshin) - Earth Release: Rock Clone Technique

Like before, you can create the clones from the ground or from your body, like they're coming from your skin. Quite a cool effect These can't use jutsus.
My opinion: This is a cool jutsu, but wouldn't it be more efficient to just use the Doton: KageBunshin version? Because these can't use jutsu at all...
How I'd counter this if used against me: Raiton jutsu. Since these are just clones, they pose very little threat unless used properly.
Questions? None.

My opinion: Pretty efficient, much better than the C-rank counterpart.
How I'd counter this if used against me: Maybe a large scale suiton jutsu could wash away the globules?
Questions? Can I combine this with a Fire Jutsu to make flaming bullets of death, A la Hiruzen style?

Questions? None.

My opinion: Earth clones. Pretty self explanatory.
How I'd counter this if used against me: Defensive Raiton jutsu, or high level tai
Questions? Are these more durable than regular Kage Bunshin? Also, can I, for example, make these clones underground, for a surprise attack? (like form them underground, and they emerge later to surprise an enemy?)

Allow you to spit mud which will quickly harden into a large wall.
My opinion: Good for defense and setup!
How I'd counter this if used against me: Raiton jutsus, or just dodge. It's more of a defensive technique.
Questions? None. Pretty self-explanatory.
(Doton: Iwa no Gōremu) – Earth Release: Stone Golem
Rank: A

If used from above the target then the user can use the earth golem to drop down onto the opponent like a bomb and crush them.
Allows you to spit out a golem. Can't use jutsus.
My opinion: Holy crap. I can't wait to learn/use this jutsu!!
How I'd counter this if used against me: Raiton to break apart the golem. Maybe I could use a means to incapacitate the golem if I can't destroy it, maybe the mud?
Questions? So is this golem strictly only a physical attacker?
(Doton: Hanridoryūheki) - Earth Release: Flowing Earth Wall of 10,000 Miles

Damage points: The user and his clones simultaneously perform hand seals Ram - Snake and expel a stream of mud from their mouths, which solidify into multiple columns of earth. These grow from the floor and together form a hardened wall of defence, with great height, extent and length. This technique can be enhanced with the Lava Release: Rubber Wall making it equal to an S rank level defence however Lightning S rank can easily break through the wall.
Note: Can only be used with a minimum of 3 shadow clones.
Similar to the wall jutsu I taught you above, now stronger.
My opinion: This seems like a fantastic way to turn my environment into my favor.
How I'd counter this if used against me: The counter's in the jutsu description, but would moving out of range of the created arena work too?
Questions? I don't understand what the "note" in the description means. Does this mean I can only use 3 shadow clones to make the arena? Or more? If so, what's the benefit of using more clones?

Same as above, stronger.
My opinion: Isn't this a little redundant? I suppose the weaker version could be used to conserve chakra...
How I'd counter this if used against me: Same as the weaker version.
Questions? None!
Sorry for the long post, senpai, I hope this is what you were asking for
But I suppose, to summarize, these are all the Doton jutsu that fall under the Method 1 category. They all seem to be focused on self-defense and supplementary jutsu!
Oh, ok! I suppose I'll start from the B-ranks since I already covered the C-ranks in my previous post!

Though if we deal with master level taijutsu, if you have the exact same mastery as your opponent, using this jutsus you will be stronger and more resistant while your opponent will be faster and more flexible, but to the outside eye, the changes would be almost imperceptible.
My opinion: Totally badass U_U
How I'd counter this if used against me: Use a Raiton jutsu to pierce the armor... Chidori or Raikiri?
Questions? None.
(Doton: KageBunshin no Jutsu) – Earth Release: Shadow Clone Technique
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 25
Damage points: N/A
Description: This technique creates a shadow clone made of mud of the user. Since its made of mud, it can continue to reform and mould itself back to its original shape. After reverting to mud, it can hold the opponent in place. The user can create upto three clones. They can also use up to C rank earth techniques.
Same as clones above, this ones can use jutsus though.
My opinion: Earth clones. Pretty self explanatory.
How I'd counter this if used against me: Defensive Raiton jutsu, or high level tai
Questions? Are these more durable than regular Kage Bunshin? Also, can I, for example, make these clones underground, for a surprise attack? (like form them underground, and they emerge later to surprise an enemy?)
(Doton: Doryuheki) - Earth Release: Earth Style Wall Jutsu
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user will first perform the Tiger → Hare → Boar → Dog and then creates a solid wall of earth as a form of defence. Chakra is either converted to earth within the body and then spat out to form the wall or the user can manipulate pre-existing earth to form the wall. The earth then instantly rises up and takes form. The barrier itself is also coated with chakra, making its strength incomparable to that of a normal mud wall. Because of the earth's special characteristics, the wall is highly resistant against, for instance, fire and water. Hizuren Sarutobi spits mud from his mouth to perform the jutsu whilst Kakashi creates a wall composed of bulldog sculptures to box-in Pain.
Allow you to spit mud which will quickly harden into a large wall.
My opinion: Good for defense and setup!
How I'd counter this if used against me: Raiton jutsus, or just dodge. It's more of a defensive technique.
Questions? None. Pretty self-explanatory.
(Doton: Iwa no Gōremu) – Earth Release: Stone Golem
Rank: A
Type: Offensive
Range: Short – Mid
Chakra cost: 30
Damage points: 60
Description: The user expels a large creature composed of stone from his mouth. The rock golem has a fair amount of stamina and brute strength, being able to bite and tear off flesh with its mouth and hands respectively. If used from above the target then the user can use the earth golem to drop down onto the opponent like a bomb and crush them.
Allows you to spit out a golem. Can't use jutsus.
My opinion: Holy crap. I can't wait to learn/use this jutsu!!
How I'd counter this if used against me: Raiton to break apart the golem. Maybe I could use a means to incapacitate the golem if I can't destroy it, maybe the mud?
Questions? So is this golem strictly only a physical attacker?
(Doton: Hanridoryūheki) - Earth Release: Flowing Earth Wall of 10,000 Miles
Rank: A
Type: Defensive
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra cost: 30
Damage points: N/A
Damage points: The user and his clones simultaneously perform hand seals Ram - Snake and expel a stream of mud from their mouths, which solidify into multiple columns of earth. These grow from the floor and together form a hardened wall of defence, with great height, extent and length. This technique can be enhanced with the Lava Release: Rubber Wall making it equal to an S rank level defence however Lightning S rank can easily break through the wall.
Note: Can only be used with a minimum of 3 shadow clones.
Similar to the wall jutsu I taught you above, now stronger.
My opinion: This seems like a fantastic way to turn my environment into my favor.
How I'd counter this if used against me: The counter's in the jutsu description, but would moving out of range of the created arena work too?
Questions? I don't understand what the "note" in the description means. Does this mean I can only use 3 shadow clones to make the arena? Or more? If so, what's the benefit of using more clones?
(Koka no Jutsu) - Hardening Technique
Rank: S
Type: Offense/Defence/Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 40
Damage Points: N/A
Description: By utilizing earth-based chakra, the user creates armour made of rock that encases their body. The armour can also be used to create extendable weapons to strike a target with.
Same as above, stronger armor, the difference is this armor completely hinders one's movement, as you become attached to the ground. You are able to move your upper body fairly quick, allowing you a somewhat increased range, but still in short range.
My opinion: Meh, I prefer the other jutsu, since it still allows mobility. Just my opinion, though.
How I'd counter this if used against me: My opponent would be static. That's never a good thing in battles :snick:
Questions? None.
(Doton: Dai iwa Kyojin no Jutsu) - Earth Release: Great Stone Golem Technique
Rank: S
Type: Offensive, Supplementary
Range: Short - Long
Chakra cost: 40
Damage points: 80
Description: The user creates a even larger and stronger version of Earth Release: Stone Golem Technique
Same as above, stronger.
My opinion: Isn't this a little redundant? I suppose the weaker version could be used to conserve chakra...
How I'd counter this if used against me: Same as the weaker version.
Questions? None!
Sorry for the long post, senpai, I hope this is what you were asking for
But I suppose, to summarize, these are all the Doton jutsu that fall under the Method 1 category. They all seem to be focused on self-defense and supplementary jutsu!
1) Indeed, however this one is created from rock while kage bunshin is created from mud. Still, it's better, I agree. But you never know whether it's a real or a clone. That's why they're always a threat, even being a useless rock clone.
2) A water would work, and it wouldn't even need to be a large scale. With the same amount of water bullets/projectiles you could stop them, though considering the rank disadvantage. You can also sweep them away with a wind technique or even stop them with an earthen wall. There's a variety of options. Yes, you can use them as Hiruzen. That's their main purpose.
3) That would work like a charm. Just to give you an idea how it actually looks, in case you're wondering and not to misuse it.

4) It's actually a mud clone and it can reform upon being damaged, so it's pretty cool. That is a magnificent question. Well, to be honest, it's actually possible. However, the clones would disappear immediately as the earth surrounding them would crush them and in order to move through the ground they need to use a technique like "hiding like a mole" or "underground fish projection". So it's not the smartest idea.
5) Yes, earth is the most defensive element of all. Lightning would be your best bet to tear through it.
6) Yes, it's a cool jutsu. He relies solely on physical strength and he can't use jutsus. Note that he's not actually like a clone that can move freely afterwards. Once he serves his purpose and you continue with another jutsu, he stops being useful, as in, you can't use him anymore. Again, there are ways to destroy him or render him useless. Your best bet would be to attack the opponent and disrupt his focus before the clone gets to you.
7) It means exactly what it says. It can only be used with a minimum of 3 clones. It's a massive technique and in order to create it that easily, you need help. Thus those clones. This technique was used by the allied shinobi forces against the 3rd Raikage when he pierced through it with his 4 point lightning strike. I don't understand, why would you move out of range? It's just a defense against incoming jutsu. I don't think moving away from it would serve a point.
8) And this one's ugly.

9) Except this one is so huge that it can reach long range with its hand. You don't actually spit this one but create him from the ground. See the small circle? Well, that's Oonoki!
This next method deals with techniques that utilize the earth around you. Unlike the last set of jutsu where you would use doton techniques from your earth chakra within you and manifest the earth itself, these techniques involve you releasing that doton chakra outwards into the environment for manipulation. You can essentially do the same as with the last set of techniques, create weapons and or objects, etc. However this set of techniques also gives one the ability to manipulate the structure of the environment around your opponent allowing raise and/or lower the earth, deform the earth to allow you to change the environment for your own purposes, etc. The general idea behind these techniques are channeling your doton chakra, outwards into the field, more than often you will utilize shape manipulation to get desired shapes and entities.
Advantages of Method
Unlike the last method, you are given the ability utilize the actual earth and bend it to your will. This broadens the scope of your abilities greatly, and gives you easier access to your opponent. Many of these techniques extend their reach in range and if your opponent is on the ground as well, you can use these techniques to reach your opponent more quickly or even have them activate close to your opponent without having to worry about techniques traveling, which gives your opponent a larger window of time to avoid. You are still able to do much of what you could’ve in the last method as well with these sort of techniques while having the advantage of affecting the earth around you and your opponent for offensive and defensive purposes.
Disadvantages of Method
The downside to this method is the fact that you need the earth in order to be able to perform many of these tasks. Without connection to the earth or the ability to channel your chakra into the earth, it makes it difficult/impossible to use these techniques and that gets rid of the versatility you gain from this method. Now, I believe there is controversy that you don’t necessarily need to be touching/making contact with the earth in someway to use these techniques. I’ve seen this done before but I’m not sure on whether it’s official or not. Personally, I believe that you would need to be connected to the ground in order to manipulate it in such a way. However, if not, I would say be no further than the range limitations away from the ground for the jutsu. For example, if you use a technique that reaches up to mid range, don’t have your body be more than mid-range off the ground. To be 100% safe though, I would say you should always be connected to the ground if you are to use an earth ranked technique that falls within this category.
Now, since the first method was more defensively oriented, this one is the opposite. Since it gives you access to manipulate the earth around the battlefield you have easy access to your opponent and can attack him directly, from his surroundings and you don't have to waste time on the usual projectiles to fly the distance before they reach him. With these techniques you can create spikes from beneath him, that pierce his legs and his torso, preventing his movements. This is the most used example and you have some artistic freedom. You can manipulate the spikes to protrude in patterns you wish and impale the opponent in places you want. So, how about you create a single spike for now.
*molding Earth chakra once more within my body, I then proceed to slam my palms into the ground between myself and senpai. I focus as I channel my chakra through the ground, visualizing it as if it were flowing underground; burrowing quickly and manipulating the Earth along with it. Then, I cause my chakra to surge upwards at a certain spot on the ground. A spike erupts from the ground nearby*
Like that? So this is essentially.... "Bending Earth" with our chakra, right, Senpai?

Yes, however you can channel the chakra through your legs, without the use of your hands. This adds for more surprising moves. However, techniques that specifically state that you slam your hands onto the ground still require you to do so. Now try without moving at all. Surprise me.
*I try again. This time, I stand still, molding chakra within myself. I recall the properties of the Earth and its form and function.
I concentrate, allowing chakra to flow downwards to my feet. I feel a distinct anchoring occurring, as my feet and the ground come into physical contact and are almost "synchronizing" with each other. This then allows me to repeat the flowing of chakra through the ground.
However, I now try to flow the chakra behind senpai. I note how it is harder to do so since my body is making contact through my feet instead of my hands which makes it harder to move an manipulate since my center was more spread out rather than centralized or smaller.
I manage to do so, and without making discernible movements, I then erupt an earth spike that sneaks up from behind senpai. It's a few inches from the middle of his back; if he fell backwards, it would not have been pretty*

While you're trying your best I look around and listen to the birds happily chirping and enjoying the day when I suddenly hear and feel the vibrations in the earth, from behind me. Followed by the vibrations a dangerous spear appears behind me and as a reflective reaction, I fluently and in a swift motion rotate my body with my palm stretched out and acting as a sword, while lightning erupts from me and forms an armor around me. With the lightning around my hand, I strike the spike as it's almost fully erupt, but before impaling me, shattering it and rendering it useless.
