But it does not make sense if the monster deal physical damage only and have a chance to bleed , a player's defence layer "physcial damage taken from hits as elemental " suddenly stop bleed altogether

Monster deals 1000 physical hit, 100% chance to bleed
Player converts all of the 1000 physical to elemental (ignoring res and reductions, irrelevant here).
Bleed only works with physical, so the source damage for the bleed is for 0 and is discarded.
If player only had 50% conversion, then the source of the bleed is 500, thus a 500 bleed would apply on top of the 500 physical and 500 converted hits.

Having only "from hits" instead of "taken as" means they are still susceptible to physical degens like corrupted blood or ground degens. But you can't inflict a bleed for 0 physical damage. There are other "taken as" builds that do this to become pseudo immune to specific ailments from hits because they take 0 of that specific elemental's damage as well. If you take 0 lightning damage from hits, the only way to be shocked is via shocked ground or enemy has all damage can shock.

So, I'm at a genuine loss here. I keep on dying to bleed(s) despite having 100% of Phys taken as Ele.
