Chapter 262: Battle of the Top 3 (I)

After Su Ya released the yellow arrow, it turned into countless arrows before reaching its destination; it was like a barrage of thousand if nor more archers shooting at once.

Nevertheless, Lin Fan just sneered after seeing this attack. Once the arrows hit, they bounced off his skin while making sounds of two metals clashing. His Absolute Chaos Physique granted a very powerful fleshly body as well, so he continued his rush towards his opponent.

Unfortunately for him, mid-way through, he suddenly vomited a big mouthful of blood; he was injured. With a confused look on his face, Lin Fan could not discover where the injuries came from.

And Su Ya was not about to give him time to think or process the entire situation. Soon, more arrows came from the sky, wanting to turn Lin Fan into a hedgehog.

He did not want to be careless this time, so he used his origin essence to erect a barrier around himself. Thus, all the arrows bounced off his shield. Yet, he still spewed out another big mouthful of blood. This time though, Lin Fan discovered the origin of his injuries: it was his liver.

Somehow, Su Ya's attack could directly bypass his outer-layer protection and directly attack his internal organs.

Despite knowing this, another problem aroused: How did she do it?

While these thoughts quickly rushed through Lin Fan's head, another barrage of arrows came toward him. This time though, he opted to use his speed to evade. Although he was constraint by the small size of the arena, he was still fast enough to evade all these arrows.

Unfortunately, Lin Fan still discovered that he was injured--even without any contact with his opponent.

"Oh my, looked at the number 1 Absolute Chaos Physique running away in battles, with confusion written all over his face. What's going on," said Su Ya with a smirk in her voice.

Meanwhile, after hearing this, a sudden fear emerged in Lin Fan's mind: fear of the unknown, fear of the possibility of losing.

As soon as those emotions appeared in his mind, he coughed a large amount of blood again. However, he quickly noticed that this time around, it was his kidney that was injured.

A few common sayings quickly appeared in his mind: "anger hurts the liver," "fear hurts the liver". Adding to that Su Ya's physique that involves controlling emotions and desires, and the fact that she made him angry at the beginning of the match, Lin Fan quickly figured out how her attacks work.

So, Lin Fan controlled his soul inside his Sea of Consciousness to enter a state of peace, a state of indifference to worldly matters and desires: a state similar to the Taoist sect's ultimate state of inactiveness, Taishuang Indifference.

After seeing Lin Fan's current situation, Su Ya sneered as she thought to herself: "Figure it out so quickly? Unfortunately for you, your state of mind is nothing compared to these Taoist Master that has spent their entire life cultivating their minds.'

After entering this pseudo-quite state, Su Ya's attacks were rendered ineffective. Even if the arrows directly hit Lin Fan, they could not bypass his defense. So, with newfound confidence, he went on the offensive.

He first took out a sword. As a person who has the Absolute Chaos Physique, Lin Fan is innately gifted with everything. Whatever he wants to learn, he can. With this physique, he can easily become a Jack of All Trade.

After all, Chaos is the embodiment of everything that was and ever will be, it is the Origin of Daos. It can be everything or nothing at all.

So, it was very easy for Lin Fan to learn the way of the Sword and became accomplish in it--even if he was not a pure swordsman.

With a wave of his sword, a powerful purple thunder rushed straight towards Su Ya. What's more, this thunder was also wrapped in flame.

Without hesitation, Su Ya evaded that attack; she did not want to go toe-to-toe with such a powerful attack. And her instinct was correct.

Boooom!

A massive explosion occurred on the spot that the Thunder-Flame attacked hit the stadium, leading to the entire arena shaking uncontrollably. A large number of runes appeared surrounding the arena as a formation was activated. It prevented the attack to reach the members of the audience, and reinforce the fighting arena so that it was not destroyed by these mighty attacks.

Without any pause or giving his opponent any room to breathe, Lin Fan continued to attack Su Ya with his Chaos Thunder-Flame, and she did not want to fight head-on with this attack.

Su Ya could tell that even if she could block it, she might suffer from low to mild injuries. Unfortunately, unlike those people in the Top 4 Heavenly Physique, she did not have a powerful fleshly body or unimaginable healing abilities. Although she had her ways to quickly heal herself in case needed, it was not as easy for her as the others: so, she dodged the attacks.

Meanwhile, Lin Fan slightly changed his tactics when he saw that his attacks were not directly working. With a wave of his sword, the Chaos Thunder-Flame turned into thousands of small swords, floating over Su Ya--just like her arrows.

With the utmost intention to destroy everything in their paths, these swords rushed towards her. At first, she tried to dodge these attacks. Unfortunately, the speed of the Thunder-Fire was beyond what she could actually react to.

So, she had to block. Immediately, she used a technique called [Guarded Heart]. This technique is based on the idea of once someone else truly loves another, they will do everything in their powers to protect them--even sacrificing their own life.

A pink shield appeared around her, following this, a massive explosion occurred once Lin Fan's attack came in contact with her. Powerful shockwaves emanated from the center of the explosion.

After the first wave of attack was finished, Su Ya looked pale in comparison to her previous complexion. Although she survived the attack, she knew that her protection would not last long. So, she used another method.

Another person suddenly appeared next to her; this person had a weird mask on their face, had chains on both his hands and feet, and it was wearing armor with spikes on them. However, the spikes were actually inward, piercing through his flesh. He looked like he was in severe pain, but he did not scream; maybe because his mask was covering his mouth.

Su Ya's shield also enveloped the masked figure. So, when Lin Fan's second wave of attacks arrived, it protected both of them. Oddly though after this round of attacks, her pale complexion returned to normal.

However, she did not have time to react as soon afterward, the third wave of attacks arrived. This time, however, her shield was broken and countless Thunder-Flame Swords rushed to her.

A massive explosion similar to a nuclear weapon occurred, and many people thought that Su Ya might have lost this fight.

However, they were wrong. Once the explosion's sight was cleared, Su Ya appeared perfectly fine, without a scratch on her. Of course, the same could not be said to the masked figured next to her; it was completely disfigured with burnt all over its body.

For the people who could use their Divine Sense to watch what happened, they knew that Su Ya actually transferred all her injuries to the masked figure. Moreover, this figure seemed to enjoy suffering from pain, and some people could even feel that its aura increase a little after suffering from that attack.

Nevertheless, Lin Fan did not care as he continued his attacks. This time, however, it was not just sword that the Thunder-Flame turned into, but different animals like dragons and phoenixes.

As he continued to attack, Su Ya started to defend herself and evade her at the same time. Meanwhile, during the entire process, Lin Fan had a smile on his face; he enjoyed watching his opponent squirm under his attacks--especially after she said these words to him.

But, he also knew that this was a battle and he should quickly finish his opponent. So, with a smirk on his face, his next attack turned into a gigantic Thunder-Flame Sword.

"This is what you get for looking down on me," said Lin Fan with a smile on his face, then he waved his sword downward, planning to finish his foe once in for all.

Unfortunately, things did not go as he planned.

When the massive sword was midway to its descend, Lin Fan suddenly vomited a big mouthful of blood, and his attacks exploded in the air before reaching the target.

A quick check, he found that it was his heart that was injured this time, and the degree of damage was more severe than the previous attacks.

Lin Fan then remembered the saying: "joy nourishes the heart, and too much hurts it."

He raised his head, only to see a cunning smirk on Su Ya's face, and he knew that he was played.
