So, basically, what you're saying is that he has an unbreakable defensive barrier surrounding him that consists of his soul, which he can safely break pieces off of and fire solely because his soul somehow regenerates itself.

I don't really give a damn if this is for RPing or your story or what, but you can't make a character that breaks and ignores canon information and power levels, even if we only have rather vague ideas of them at this point, just to make him look cool. He's effectively the strongest thing in all of Remnant simply because his aura is, for all intents and purposes, infinite. Nothing could possibly hurt him. Not a nuclear bomb, not the Tsar Bomba, not even the fucking apocalypse. Even the argument of lack of oxygen or lack of sustenance is irrelevant, since Aura has regenerative capabilities, creating a cycle of his body regenerating his aura and his aura regenerating his body that will go on forever. And even lack of control is irrelevant, as those properties would be done on a purely instinctual level, as they both fall under the far-reaching category of "things that help me not get hurt". Hell, he could win any battle he wanted by simply standing still and getting hit until his opponent got tired enough that a simple push would defeat them.

Similarly, since he lacks any control over his aura (not even sure how this is supposed to be a thing, given that his aura is his soul), one shot from his crossbow would effectively be comparable to the Tsar Bomba mentioned above, only significantly more concentrated. And, even if we assume that they're comparable to a child throwing a bouncy ball, the fact that he can shoot them off wildly without having to worry about running out just means that he can just rapid-fire them to cause scratch damage that his oppnent would eventually succumb to. Probably wouldn't take long, either, given that he's shooting arrows made of portions his infinite soul.

The fact that he's a self-insert only furthers my points, as he's nothing more than a Gary Stu that exists for your own wish fulfillment at this point.
