annihilable
Able to destroy
Annihilable means capable of being annihilated—destroyed completely or reduced to nothing.
The word appears in philosophical and theological discussions about whether the soul is annihilable, and in physics regarding matter and antimatter.
Some argued that consciousness was not annihilable, only transformable.
