Custom element Japanese name: Serenton
Custom element English name: Selenium Dust Release
The element is based on: Earth + Fire + Advanced Chakra Control.
Facts that prove the element to be possible (in manga context):
First, there must be proof that Selenium exists in the Naruto universe: Selenium is a nonmetal element that functions as cofactor for reduction of antioxidant enzymes in animals and plants, an enzyme that occurs in all living organisms. It is an essential micronutrient for animals, naturally existing in domestic livestock (Pigs, Cows, Turkey, Chickens, Fishes). It is also readily present in the thyroid gland that exists in the human body (The selenium content in the human body is believed to be in the 13–20 milligram range) and research (In 1957) has shown that it is essential for mammalian life. In plants, it occurs as a bystander mineral existing in bananas, cashews, lentils, spinach, mushrooms etc. Research has also proven Selenium is present in the soil and in mushrooms. Significant amount of selenium can also be found in ocean water.
As far as Naruto goes, there isn't really anything to lead anyone to believe that the makeup of Naruto's earth, especially the plant and organic life there, is any different from our earth. Not only that, but there is also no reason to believe that, without chakra intervention, the organs and chemicals within a normal human beings or animals body in Naruto is any different than ours. If the plant life and the human and animal life in Naruto are all the same (and there is not much as far as reasoning that it wouldn't be) then it stands to reason that Selenium exists in Naruto.
A complaint as to how viable this element lies in the amount of Selenium that can even be extracted. Would it be enough to actually combat other opponents? Consider another element, Wood Style. In real life, it takes many years, if not decades, for full grown trees and forests to grow. Yet Hashirama and Yamato have been shown to accomplish completing this feat in mere seconds or less. Another example would be Crystal Release. In order for the amount of crystals that can be created from the ground with this element to naturally occur, decades if not centuries would have to pass. Yet Guren can create a massive amount of crystals from the ground in an instant. The point here is that with chakra being the engine behind the growth of substances, the growth rate can be exponentially increased.
How it works:
Selenium exists in 3 forms, however this CE focuses mainly on the amorphous red brick powder state. It is created by manipulating the consistency of the user's Fire chakra and adding Earth chakra to create the base of the element, which results in a red powder being produced, after which advanced chakra control is introduced to exponentially increase its growth rate and toxicity. Selenium can be released from the user's body, the ground or from water sources by channeling the chakra into the earth/water.
Selenium has an high melting of 221 °C making it durable against heat based elements. Should Selenium get to this temperature, it'd be converted into its black form and the user becomes unable to manipulate it. Selenium possesses both a photovoltaic action (It converts light to electricity) and a photoconductive action (Its electrical resistance decreases with increased illumination) which makes it weak to lightning and strong to non-electric light releasing elements. Despite selenium being essential for mammalian life, it is highly toxic when consumed in high quality. As such if one were to absorb the substance, whether it be orally, directly into the bloodstream, or even by inhaling it, it causes a number of effect depending on the amount absorbed. Exposure to the eyes also causes irritation and eventually blindness.
Toxic effects of Selenium include:
Nausea
Vomiting
Fatigue
Irritability
Headaches
Myocarditis
Death
Usage Examples:
Spoiler
Conditions to be able to use it:
Must be atleast Jonin rank
Must have mastered Earth, Fire and Basic Ninjutsu
Weak to:
Lightining: Due to Selenium's photoconductive action (Electrical resistance decreases with increased illumination). It becomes extremely conductive when exposed to lightning jutsus that produce bright lights and as such it reduces its efficiency against lightning techniques. It is neutral to black lightning seeing as that form of lightning doesn't produce light.
Water: Similarly to Sand release, Water makes it harder to control
Strong to:
Light release techniques and abilities that produce a lot of light (e.g Noldor's Holy Fire): Due to Selenium's photovoltaic action (converts light to electricity) any non-lightning jutsu that produces tremendous light would cause the red powder to produce electricity that further boosts its offensive and defensive capabilities
Fire release: Due to Selenium's high melting point and its photvoltaic action (see explanation above). It is strong against fire elements.
Scorch: Similarly to earth, Selenium lacks moisture for Scorch to evaporate and it's high melting point.
Organic Materials such as Wood, Aburame bugs, Bones etc due to its toxicity
Earth: Similarly to sand release, Selenium dust can be used to grind Earth or to become dense enough to compete against even the hardest rocks.
Lava: Due to Selenium's strength to both fire and earth (See descriptions above), it's is only natural for it to be strong to lava

I, Punk Hazard, moderator of the Custom Elements Bureau, declare for all men to hear that I give you the following:
Lytes, our loyal member, gave on the date June 28th, 2020, a request for a Patent on his custom element (Serenton); after reading the submission, I decided that the submitted element satisfies all requirements, and am therefore giving him his rightfully earned Patent on this element by the following;
