"Flowing Light Dances" – Third Stage: Illusion of Annihilation. This was similarly a move carrying heavy murderous intent. Compared to "Sea of Blood Exhausted," which felt like standing in the malevolent aura of a boundless sea of blood, the Illusion of Annihilation seemed gentler, yet it was actually far more dangerous.
Once "Sea of Blood Exhausted" was unleashed, a thick, bloody murderous aura would wash over anyone facing it. The Illusion of Annihilation, however, was different. Although this technique also required the practitioner to have an extremely high comprehension of Slaughter Sword Intent, its outward manifestation was remarkably gentle. If "Sea of Blood Exhausted" made any cultivator immediately feel that the skies were filled with killing intent and understand that the swordsman's sole purpose was to kill, the Illusion of Annihilation was not like that at all.
Every strike of this sword was exceptionally gentle, even beautiful. But beneath that exterior of beauty lay a suppressed, hidden, and fatal murderous intent. When the sword was wielded, it brought beautiful hallucinations to other cultivators; immersed in their own pleasant dreams, they would lose their lives without even realizing it.
