The user can analyze, shape and manipulate the essence for anything, the attribute or set of attributes such as that make substance/matter what it fundamentally is, for anything there is, and which it has by necessity, and without which it loses its identity. The user can change the essence of the target's soul into any type of different soul like of a different species or that of a different entity or individual. They can change one's attribute to a different nature in order to avoid on coming attacks. Ex. If someone was about to be hit by a Darkness Ball, the user can change their attribute to Darkness in order to be protected from the Darkness Ball and completely unphased.
The user can manipulate the essence of all things, including inorganic matter, energy, forces, supernatural things, life, animals, auras, life-force, minds, emotions, and even concepts. They can restore matter, life, minds, energy, forces, the supernatural and even concepts to good condition, and can influence those things in other ways as well, such as enhancing or amplifying them.
