BXBX NOVEL Chapter 276 Stopping The Beam
Orun is an elemental spirit king drawing his fire from a natural force. The only one whose elemental powers can stand against Orun\'s elemental powers are the other three elemental kings, not the elves.
The fire elder thrust out the water made sword at Orun, and he succeeded in catching it with one hand.
Orun had his hand heated up enough to start boiling the sword and eventually making it lose its rubber like liquified state, evaporating whatever was left of it.
He released his hand on the already evaporated sword and kicked the fire elder in the ribs.
The water elder after seeing the fire elder fall so easily, started hurling down massive chunks of water balls down on Orun.
Orun ignored the water ball and took to the sky after seeing that the wind elder had succeeded in setting the earth elder free.
With the earth elder now back on the ground, Orun\'s actions will once again be limited to the sky alone.
He still does not have a specific grasp on how the earth elder\'s ability works.
If he did, Orun might be able to come up with a way to prevent it from taking effect even after he has his legs connected to the ground.
Orun also had to disabled the forest he had sprouted out to cover the arena grounds with.
If he is to continue his attack in mid air, there is a need for him to be able to see below, and having the forest present would only rob him of his vision.
The elders had that ability they used on Orun to hide themselves from his sight and his senses, so he won\'t be able to rely on that as a means to track their whereabouts.
Attacking them with the forest as well will also do no good mostly because of the earth elder and how fast the other elders are.
They are fast enough to evade the thorns from getting to them and wrapping itself around their bodies, and the earth elder could also just conjure up an earth wall to stop the movement of the trees in the forest from getting any closer to him.
The earth elder placed his two hands on the ground and resumed his attack by sending out spears made from the earth in Orun\'s direction.
Orun blocked as much of the spears as he could by swiftly moving around in the sky.
While he was blocking, he noticed that there was something weird happening below.
Two of the elders, the wind elder and the fire elder came together while the earth elder and the water elder were attacking Orun.
Their actions looked as if they were trying to buy more time, but for what is the question on Orun\'s mind.
The wind elder and the fire elder stood side by side, with the both of them reaching out their hand to grab at each other.
Orun\'s first thought was that they were flirting with each other from the way they clocked palms and held on to it tightly.
He was however proven wrong when he saw a bright light emanating from the hand they had clapsed together.
The color of the light coming out was a combination of wind and fire put together, and it\'s range was slowly extending out of their clapsed palm all the way to their hands that was in contact with each other.
Orun did not know what it is they were planning on doing, but it does not look that good looking at them from above.
"Wind, Flame Elemental resonance".
The wind and fire elder both yelled out at the same time, causing the light coming from their clapsed hands to grow even brighter.
With the bright light still shining, they had their clapsed hand raised up and directed at Orun.
The moment the hands faced Orun, a beam was projected out of it and headed in his direction.
In retaliation to the beam, Orun had both his hand stretched out and shaped like he was drawing an arrow already strung on a bow.
He pulled the arrow toward him, and the shape hastily made itself in physical appearance crafted using flames.
Orun released the arrow, and it burned its way to the beam coming at him.
When both attacks came into close proximity of each other, they battled it out with neither showing any signs of giving up anytime soon.
The beam was still connected to the clapsed hand of the wind elder and the fire elder, giving them the chance to send in more of their powers into the beam to strengthen it with so it can withstand the force of the arrow fired by Orun and not get pushed back by it.
It was a drawn out battle with the attention of the elders concentrated on it, waiting for the beam to come out victorious.
Orun on the other hand, fired another flame arrow after he saw that the first one was losing the battle of wits against the beam.
The arrow went in, joining in with the first arrow and causing devastating damage to the beam.
When the second arrow collided, it shattered the beam like a gunshot fired to a glass.
It broke the beam down layer by layer and made its way to the wind elder and the fire elder.
The earth elder was quick to respond by conjuring up an earth wall to stand in the way of the arrow and prevent it from reaching the fire and wind elder.
The arrow broke through the earth wall, piercing a hole through it like it was nothing and its momentum still did not decrease by a bit as it continued its journey to the fire elder and the wind elder.
The arrow had gotten to them, and has also broken through the barrier they set up to protect themselves with.
It was now within a hair breath away from them when it was stopped by a hand that came from the fire elder\'s side.
"I apologize, I got too carried away in the moment".
Orun said, holding unto the arrow\'s body that had its tip pointing to the fire elder\'s eyeball.
