Soshinryoku

Soshinryoku (Curse of Divine Power) is the kekkei genkai of the Soju Clan. The cursed bloodline is thought to have derived from a man who betrayed his master in an attempt to gain omnipotent power, and in turn was cursed with an overwhelming power that he could not contain and over time deteriorated his body and eventually led to his death. The thought was that he was blessed with the power of a god, but cursed to contain that power in a human body. A feat that is impossible without the proper celestial blood to serve as a means of support.

The Soju Clan
The Soju Clan, literally meaning (The Cursed Clan) is a clan that existed long ago in Hiizurukuni (Land of the Rising Sun) in which its member's possessed the unique ability of chakra mastery through a curse bestowed upon their ancestors. The infamous Seijin Order is thought to have derived from this clan including the revered "Sage Mode" used by Naruto Uzumaki and Lord Jiraiya.

Every member born within the clan contained unusually high amounts of chakra that naturally overflowed and could not be physically contained by its host. This overwhelming power lead to dismal futures for those who inherited this "curse". Because of the amounts of raw power resonating within the bodies of the hosts, their physical body would be unable to maintain its appearance and natural functions leading to early death. Noone who possessed the curse lived over the age of 25 as their bodies would literally be destroyed and eroded by the vast amounts of overwhelming energy surging through them. This was true until Akatoki Soju a highly skilled and scientific genius ninja from Hiizurukuni found a way to harness the overwhelming levels of chakra. While the exact method Akatoki used is only known to members of the clan, many outsiders believe he made use of hundreds of shadow clones to gain mastery over the cursed bloodline. From that point forward, every member of the clan was taught to gain mastery over two key areas of power. Physical energy and Nature energy and along with them the ability to manipulate and master the "curse".

Abilities
Members of the Soju clan who have harnessed the overwhelming power of the Soshinryoku gain multiple advantages in battle and their bodies go through a series of changes.
 * Enhanced Durability: Because the Soju have huge levels of overwhelming charka reserves, their bodies naturally produce a transparent coating of raw energy to serve as a shield and extra layer of skin to lessen the damage they take. This affords them with incredible durability aswell as being able to maintain a high level battle for hours.
 * Enhanced Strength: Due to their incredible chakra output at all times, their physical attacks are greatly increased making them very formidable hand-to-hand combatants.
 * Energy Manipulation: It is common for ninja who possess the soshinryoku bloodline to use weapons that are entirely composed of raw physical energy such as energy swords and whips.
 * Natural High levels of chakra reserves augmented: The massive levels of chakra that are contained within Soju clan members is augmented becoming more dense and therefor easier for them to mold and manipulate.
 * Genjutsu resilient: Masters of the Soshinryoku have learned how to effectively disable and disrupt even the strongest of genjutsu techniques by maniuplating the high level of energy within and directly surrounding them. Because they constantly release high amounts of chakra from their bodies, genjutsu users have a much more difficult time succeeding with their techniques due their chakra effecting the stabability of the surrounding environment.
 * Enhanced healing: Due to the accelerated matabolism and cellular growth rate of the Soju clan members bodies, they heal at a much faster rate than normal.
 * Chakra Field: An ability rumored to have been created by one of the greatest ninja from the Soju clan, Akatoki Soju. After his continued use and over-exhaustion of his abilities his body became fragile and he eventually lost his vision due to a heightened state of the Soshinryoku. He soon after developed this technique to detect his surroundings aswell as navigate from place to place. Very similar to "Sage Mode" in that the user of this technique gains the ability to commune with their surroundings completely and is able to sense living beings aswell as inadimate objects. The distance and radius of the user's ability to sense is based on their talent and overall mastery over the bloodline and this ability needs to be "activated" as opposed to the natural sensory capabilities of sage mode.

Weakness
One of the greatest side effects of the cursed bloodline is apparently blindness as a result of over using the vast amounts of chakra at one time. This is believed to be true for the advanced state of the Soshinryoku called "Shoutenshinryoku" meaning (Ascending Curse of Divine Power), which has only been attained and used by Akatoki Soju.
