Earth Release: Earth Sand Wall

The user creates a wall of sand and 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 composed of chakra-coated stone with a sand interior, making its strength incomparable to that of a normal mud wall, and able to dissipate much more amounts of blunt force. Because of the earth's special characteristics, the wall is highly resistant against, for instance, fire and water. However, if the outer portion of the wall is damaged, fire and water can hamper the sand's effectiveness as a shock absorber.
