Killing Intent / Bloodlust Aura

An aura of murderous intent and violence that accumulates on a cultivator from killing other living beings, particularly those of similar or higher cultivation level. Low-level killings produce a weak aura that dissipates, but killing peers creates a dense, sharp, and cold aura that permanently clings unless removed by specific Buddhist or Daoist techniques. A heavy aura can disrupt opponents’ minds, lower their combat effectiveness, and is beneficial for cultivating certain arts like the Seven Kill Art.
