Official rules say that incorporeal substances cannot become corporeal via Semblance (thus, the example of Lie Ren clearly using his aura [or what is implied to be such] as some sort of visible force to block the King Taijitu's fangs is not a valid counterargument, as this is most likely typical aura use and there is no solid basis for the claim that he's using his Semblance). Due to this, I can't conclusively say that changing aura into "Energy Arrows" would definitely not be allowed. Even if this was proven to be Lie Ren's Semblance, this would still be in violation of the rule that prevents all forms of aura manipulation, unless it was furthermore proved that the force is Lie Ren's aura being manipulated by his Semblance. This is not currently the case.

The idea of becoming "partially" invisible or intangible may (or may not) be allowed, but it's difficult to see how someone would become only partially either of these, save the possibility of simply lowering one's opacity and calling it "partial invisibility." How does one become "partially intangible?" Note that complete intangibility is a violation of the "auto-dodge" rule as well as potentially the "corporeal substances becoming incorporeal" rule, the "transformation" rule, and finally the "ultimate" rule (which prohibits the use of any effects that are completely limitless in any way and/or have no counter), which also applies to complete invisibility. The fact that the intangibility (as well as the invisibility) is only "partial" may keep it from directly violating any of those rules, but "partially" must be more specifically defined to be sure.

In conclusion, both of these ideas would, without a doubt, be immediately rejected. The first has a snowball's chance in the center of the Earth (read: no chance) and the second isn't clear enough in it's effects to warrant acceptance. Note that even if you did clarify it and it didn't directly voilate any listed rules, it still seems likely to be rejected.
