Walk Through the Mountains

Walk Through the Mountain is an mystical earth kiho that merges the spirit of the monk with earth. Few students of earth kiho learn this kiho, and those who do don't even claim to understand it. It allows the monk to pass through earth and stone as if it was not there, but neither monk nor material become immaterial. It will allow the monk to pass through stone walls, or walk across quagmires of viscous mud without sinking. Metals processed by man, such as steel, are not susceptible to this kiho. Moving through large expances of stone can be dangerous, as it is completely dark and the monk could lose their way. The kiho lasts for several minutes, but if caught within the stone when the kiho expires the monk would suffocate almost immediately. (3E p. 256)
