Earth Release: Four Mountain Barrier Seal

A variation on the Great Mountain Barrier Seal, this technique was primarily used to seal away the corpses of the buraku clan to prevent them from being reanimated by ANY shinobi.

The seal takes on the form of a stone slab, being formed from pre-existing earth, the target or targets being encased in the slab. Once the slab has formed and hardened a sealing formula is engraved upon it similar to that of the Great Mountain Barrier Seal. However the kanji in the center seal is the kanji for 4 (4), and the four spires that extend from the central circle extend out one at a time; each spire extends down to the base of each of the four sides, the sealing formula spreading along the base of each wall. once the sealing formula has encircled the base of the slab the seal is complete, once again being nearly impossible to penetrate.
