These are two individual methods, the Advanced conversion is a follow through of the Env. Manip so technically all Advanced conversin techniques are env. manip but techniques just in the latter method are not part of advanced conversion.

Obviously before I train you in advanced conversions, I must train you in the first method so we'll take it from there but that will have to come either later today or whenever my proxy finishes dividing up the method for you.

Anyway, the first step to learning about these methods is focusing your chakra outward into the ground or into a source of earth you can later manipulate. The first two steps I'll have you do involve manipulating a stone or formation of rock and then manipulating the actual ground. So first thing's first
Focus your chakra into that large bolder over there, placing your hand on it. Take a chunk of it and piece it off with your chakra and then use shape manipulation to create a simple spear or staff of solid earth. You can also try playing around and creating a few different kinds of weapons. We'll start with that
I walked towards the rock and placed my hand on it. It was cold to the touch. I then began to mold up some chakra and channel it into my arm through the core of my body. I also used nature transformation and used doton chakra to be able to cut the rock into pieces in a better way than raw chakra. As chunks of the rock would get loose i collected some of it in my hand. I then continued by channel doton chakra into the chunk and used shape manipulation to form it into a Halloween pumpkin-look-alike. I then placed it infront of you your feet.
This is better, i mean you could use it as a projectile boulder and scare your enemies off.
Oh well, i took up the boulder and used infused it with doton chakra again and used shape manipulation to turn the boulder into a spear which i then inconveniently threw towards a tree.
Now most of the earth techniques in this method deal altering the earth on a relatively large scale; creating large structures, manipulating them, raising and lowering the earth, etc. What I'm going to have you do next is to go through a few more of the principle techniques of earth manipulation.
Use your chakra to finely shape several spears or spikes that protrude from the earth between short and mid-range.
Secondly try to create a moderate quake that rattles the very foundation and can off balance but isn't strong enough to create any real fissures or cracks in the ground. This is mainly to off balance your opponents.
Finally try to rise the earth beneath your feet. Raise platforms, divide your platform and form a dome of earth separate from you large earth platform
Hm similar to how i've used iron sand moves in battles.
I start by gathering chakra and usually by slamming my hand on the ground, i infuse it with the chakra i've collect it. By channeling the chakra through the ground i get a grip of the earth and hardens certain structures underground to take form into spears and/or spikes that would be sharp and hard. This would be done with advanced shape-manipulation as you would need to shape something that is already underground, i assume it's not as easy to to shape something that is above it since you can't really see what you're shaping.
By manipulating further, i grip the spears with doton chakra and make them rise up towards the surface to create a spiky area that would penetrate feets and cause severe bleeding and pain, should the opponent not move away from the area. Unfortunately, that is not common as when you focus chakra through the ground you're almost forced to show that you are doing it(slamming your hand on the ground) this would alarm the opponent that something is going to happen where he is standing and thus can either move away or neutralize the doton chakra with other chakra or similar one. Anyway, as the spears i created rised up they would cover a distance from me and stretching out to mid-range(a couple of meters). It would be formed as a straight line but could also be used to flank opponents if you create spears that would emerge around them. Which is usually what i do with my iron sand. Harder to avoid.
Secondly try to create a moderate quake that rattles the very foundation and can off balance but isn't strong enough to create any real fissures or cracks in the ground. This is mainly to off balance your opponents.
Very typical doton users to perform this type of attack to catch their opponent off guard and unable to focus to perform counter jutsus while on the other hand these type of moves doesn't do much damage themselves, ironically.
Slamming my hand on the ground again and channeling the doton chakra through the ground i cause disturbance in the calm earth by using my chakra as in a sort of wavy formation or just a burst of doton chakra that would cause the earth to tremble. The more chakra i channel, the harder it shakes. But that was not required as for now, but rather using how i would do it. As a result to this, the ground around me starts to shake and i can feel the earth vibrating under my hands so i remove them after the demonstration.
Best way to use this kind of technique imo, would only be when you utilize enough chakra to both catch an opponent off-guard and damage them. Creating fissures of making rocks fall down on them(that is if you're in a rocky terrain or in a tunnel).
Finally try to rise the earth beneath your feet. Raise platforms, divide your platform and form a dome of earth separate from you large earth platform
This is interesting as i've never really understood why you would want to do this type of move. It doesn't really change your range from the opponent but rather rises you above if you create a earth formation that would take you upwards. Sure you could create a lake with another suiton move i guess and then put raiton in it. <Classic combination but for me it's unnecessary work where as i could just create a normal pit that would make opponent fall down and get crushed instead. But maybe that kind of technique belongs in this method as well.
(I'm thinking of this one)
Doton: Retsudo Tenshō) - Earth Release: Tearing Earth Turning Palm
Rank: C
Type: Offense
Range: Short/Long
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: After performing the required hand seals Boar → Ox → placing hand on the ground, the user causes the ground surrounding the enemy to spiral inwards on itself, burying them alive or crushing them. This technique is capable of causing quite a bit of damage to the area. This technique is much more damaging if used in rocky mountainous areas, or inside a cave.
Anyway, by again slamming my hands on the ground i channel a rather great amount of chakra since i'm going to lift very heavy objects. Earth plateaus. This require a create deal of blunt force and high chakra control, thus making these kinds of techniques such highly ranked(i think A-rank and higher?). As i focus the chakra under me i use it to take control of a huge amount of earth that would be formed like a disk or platform. This platform would then be used to extend my position vertically and create a sort of "hill". By using shape manipulation i form the platform accordingly. As i am standing on the uprised formation i shatter the platform and uses advanced chakra control to create the leftover earth to create simple and wide walls that would act as defensive walls mainly against stream and projectile offenses by the opponent. Lastly i gather together the walls and create a dome that would protect me in all directions and act as a sort of cocoon. Acting an almost absolute it unfortunately cancels my eyesight from the opponent as they can clearly still see my dome and know that i am inside it.
Finally. U_U
So, I'll be taking over your Earth training. Just mention, which method you are on, and till where he covered it, so that it'll be simpler for me to train you. I'll teach the methods, and then train the jutsus of that method to you, and will group similar jutsus together, so that you understand it properly.
So, you weave the Rat handseal, and use your Doton chakra to manipulate the surrounding Earth by infusing your chakra into it, and spatially recompose it to form several sections of Earth to rise in an almost diagonal arc from both the sides, and then you finally manipulate it to form two gigantic sections, both shaped like semi-circles that "close" in on the opponent, which could be used to crush him. Since, the jutsu spawns a wide range, it's given as Mid/Long, and if you use it in short range, you'll get caught in it too.
The next one is multi ranked, although it's not given as one in the technique description, except in the damage section. Anyway, you gather up a medium amount of chakra, and insert your chakra into sensitive and vulnerable spots of buildings, caves, cliffs or active C ranked structures and then manipulate it in such a way, so as to loosen it's very foundation, to ultimately form cave-ins, buildings and structures to crumble, forming a widespread destruction. Basically, you can use it in a large cave with thick structures to form a massive cave-in, but since the damage isn't focused on one particular spot, nor is it fueled actively by your chakra, it does cause the damage upto 60 points, which is equivalent to an A-Rank technique, but is easily defended from. Best used in caves.
This one is very basic and easy. You weave the Rat → Horse → Dog → Snake handseals and send your Doton chakra into the ground, manipulating it to make tall pillars of rock rise from the ground. The pillars are quite tall, about twice the size of an average human, and the distance between each pillar is very minute. The prison surrounds the opponent from all the sides, obviously except the top, so it's wise to follow up with a jutsu that prevents escape from the top. The downside here is that, the opponent can easily escape through digging underground and pop out behind you, killing you if he's successful.
Sorry for delay, vacation and love comes first yadayada~

I start off by kneading my chakra from the core of my body. I then utilize the natural element of earth to create doton chakra which i would release into the ground under me after performing the Rat handseal. As the chakra would submerge it would grab a hold of heavy rock sessions under me or my opponent to create a disturbance. The sessions would then emerge and form as a dome around the opponent and move towards it. These walls would then crush the opponent.
(Doton: Ganban Kyu) - Earth Release: Bedrock Coffin
Rank: C
Type: Offense
Range: Mid/Long
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: After performing the Rat hand seal, the user to control multiple sections of rock and move them around their opponent. The user then forms two gigantic sections that crush the opponent.
I have a question, could this be used as a defensive jutsu? Feels like creating two gigantic sections of earth would make a great shield against widespread jutsus. That is if you emerge the sections around yourself and not around the opponent.

After focusing my doton chakra i quickly perform a single handseal and then slam my palms on the ground(well since we're not in a cave i guess.) The chakra would then be channeled in the ground til it reached a small fissure about 10 meters away from us. As per the description of the jutsu, the chakra is then used to take advantage of weak stone/rock/ground formations and making them collapse however i would assume you could do it on the ground as well to create a huge fissure out of a small one. However the fissure must be strategically positioned i guess..
(Doton: Iwa Yado Kuzushi) - Earth Release: Stone Lodging Destruction
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Long
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A (up to 60)
Descripton: The user will do one hand seal and cause nearby earth structures (either natural occurring ones on the field (such as cave ceilings, cliffs, etc), man made (buildings, etc) or jutsu made (up to C-Rank active structures)) to collapse and fall. This technique allows the ninja to control nearby stone and rock and dislodge any vulnerable or sensitive spots, causing the structure to collapse. This can be especially useful if in a cave or a stone lodging. The technique can loosen the rocks and cause them to come raining down on whomever is trapped inside. The damage depends on the size of the cavern or rock lodging above or nearby the target and not on the amount of chakra used which doesn't need to be high. A large cave with a thick ceiling can easily do the physical damage equivalent to an A-Rank technique but due to the damage not being focused or chakra fueled, its also easily defendable.
I have no questions other than if my use of it is actually legit or if it's limited to solid structures.

I start by focusing my doton chakra. I then weave the following handsigns:
Rat → Horse → Dog → Snake
Shortly after i once again slam my hands on the ground(not sure if necessary though, but it makes it look more badass ) and send a surge of doton chakra underground to grab hold of rocks and stones. The doton chakra would then form the rocks into pillars that then would be emerged under and around my desired target. This would create a prison of stone slabs to surround the opponent from all sides.
(Doton: Ganchūrō no Jutsu) - Earth Release: Rock Pillar Prison Technique
Rank: C
Type: Defence/supplementary
Range: Short/Mid
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A
Description: After performing the required hand seals Rat → Horse → Dog → Snake and they then create a large amount of rock pillars to rise from under ground. They can then be controlled to surround their opponent and create a bamboo-like prison of rock.
I have a question, could this be used as a defensive jutsu? Feels like creating two gigantic sections of earth would make a great shield against widespread jutsus. That is if you emerge the sections around yourself and not around the opponent.
Yes, you can use it that way. It's upto you to not make the rock sections crush you, lol. But, the drawback is that you're vulnerable from the other two sides, so I'd say, make the rock sections emerge in front and back of you, so as to use it as a cover to disappear underground, etc.
I have no questions other than if my use of it is actually legit or if it's limited to solid structures.
As the tech says, it's limited to solid structures such as pillars, caves, ceilings, etc. It's basically loosening the foundation of the structure, so as to seperate out the bonds that hold together the structure.
From now on, I'll post the techniques as I teach, so as to make it easier for me to keep track of what I've taught, lol.
Next up:
(Doton: Doryūkatsu) - Earth Release: Earth Flow Divide
Rank: C-A
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short/Long
Chakra Cost: 15-30
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user will first perform the required hand seals Rabbit → Boar → Rat → Horse → Tiger → Snake and slamming the hands on the ground, the user can, by flowing concentrated chakra into the Dragon Veins flowing underground, tear the earth apart, creating large chasms by raising the earth in two oposite sides in the desired location and then splitting that piece of earth through the center. The length, width, direction, and curve of the chasm are all up to the user. Manipulating the Dragon Veins requires fine chakra control, but if one has such skill, they can use this technique to divide the space between the enemy and their own team in two, destroy enemy camps or defences, and even to attack.
Note: This does not split the earth appart directly to cause opponents to fall in the fissure.
Another multi-ranked technique. It was shown by Yamato in the manga to split up the ground and ultimately the Amterasu flames which were burning on the ground. You weave a string of handseals, and slam your hands on the ground, channeling your Earth chakra into it, which would be pretty focused and concentrated. This enables you to channel chakra into the dragon veins running below the earth's surface. Once you do this, the earth rises up a few meters, and then splits apart sidewards. You can also aim to flow your chakra, so as to split the ground from exactly the center and tear it apart. The split earth sections fall angularly sidewards at a 45 degree angle. As mentioned, you can destroy enemy camps, separate out your team from your opponents, and falter the balance of the opponent greatly, although he doesn't fall in the gap created. The technique is not too fast in it's usage, and requires you to keep you to keep your chakra flowing constantly into the dragon veins.
) and send a surge of doton chakra underground to grab hold of rocks and stones. The doton chakra would then form the rocks into pillars that then would be emerged under and around my desired target. This would create a prison of stone slabs to surround the opponent from all sides.
