I Have Infinite Skill Points-Chapter 611: The Fall of the Unparalleled Knight

Chapter 611: Chapter 611: The Fall of the Unparalleled Knight

The Unparalleled Knight’s snow-white beard hung to his chest, making him look exceptionally burly. Holding two huge axes, he landed and immediately shielded the Pope behind him.

"Old friend..." the Pope’s strained voice began. "This time, even if it costs us our lives, we must completely eradicate the Hell Monarch. God’s Country can’t withstand another attack from him..."

The Pope slowly straightened. His Star Power surged once again, shooting straight into the sky. The Skill Forms of the starry sky, which had been gradually fading, became clear again under the infusion of the Pope’s Star Power.

Seeing this, the Hell Monarch’s face instantly darkened. "You can actually use the Great Mantra Skill twice in a row? Popes in the past could only perform it once every three years."

"You are right. The Great Mantra Skill, once every three years. But..." He paused. "I am not like the Popes of the past! Great Mantra Skill!"

BOOM—

The laws of the world pressed down on the Hell Monarch. He could only use the world’s laws to counter the Star Martial Skills that could manipulate some of these same laws. The limited power of the great world’s laws faced off against the full might of the small world’s laws. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Space twisted. Chains of law instantly entwined, colliding and clashing. The Hell Monarch looked up at the battle of spatial laws, his dark face betraying no emotion.

"COUGH, COUGH, COUGH—" Suddenly, the Unparalleled Knight let out a series of violent coughs, which stood out starkly on the tumultuous battlefield.

"Old friend, how are you?" the Pope immediately asked with concern.

"COUGH, COUGH, COUGH... It’s nothing, just a bit out of breath." The Unparalleled Knight’s cheeks were the color of red dates, and only he knew his true condition. Although the Unparalleled Knight was over twenty years younger than the Pope, his bodily functions had deteriorated far more than the Pope’s.

The Unparalleled Knight’s life had been filled with battles, filled with bloodshed. He was a peerless warrior on the battlefield, an invincible overlord, but in the end, he was still human. No matter how many wounds he had received and how much blood he had shed, there would come a time to pay the price.

The countless injuries he had sustained over the years eventually accumulated into hidden wounds. These erupted like a mountain torrent in his old age. However, the Unparalleled Knight could not reveal his physical condition because he was the Guardian War God of God’s Country.

The Guardian War God of God’s Country could not fall—for the sake of the Papacy, for God’s Country, and for himself.

For the Unparalleled Knight, the reappearance of the Hell Monarch might actually be a blessing in disguise. At least he wouldn’t have to lie on a sickbed, bidding farewell in regret to friends, family, and his devout followers. He could die gloriously in battle, drawing a perfect end to his illustrious life.

Thunder raged around the Unparalleled Knight. His wild aura surged upward, his form becoming lightning itself as he charged straight into the midst of the spatial law conflict. His battle axes, emanating a raging momentum, slashed down fiercely, cutting through several of the Hell Monarch’s spatial law chains.

With the Unparalleled Knight’s explosive intervention, the Pope’s Great Mantra Skill instantly turned the tide from disadvantage to advantage, suppressing the law chains the Hell Monarch had raised.

Seeing this scene from afar, Wang Lan and the others were greatly shaken. Wang Lan, in particular, felt a chill in his heart. Although I’m only in the early stages of the Star Sea Realm, with control of multiple diamond-level Star Martial Skills, my combat power is nearly on par with that of the Five Emperors. Having fought side by side with individuals like Emperor Bai, I have a clear understanding of the Five Emperors’ power. Although my strength is less than theirs, the difference isn’t too vast. Facing the Five Emperors, I still have the strength to fight.

But witnessing the battle between the Pope and the Hell Monarch, Wang Lan felt utterly powerless. It’s said in legends that the Pope of God’s Country is peerless; even among those in the Star Soul Realm, he’s unrivaled. Seventy years ago, before the Demon Clan retreated, the Pope was known as the pinnacle of human battle power, his fame reverberating throughout both the human and demon worlds. At that time, the Demon Clan’s forces were unstoppable, conquering almost seventy percent of human lands. However, even when they retreated, they couldn’t take God’s Country, simply because of the Pope. After the war, the Pope became a legend. During that time, Star Soul Realm experts emerged and fell, one after another, but the Pope remained that peerless pinnacle. To this day, no one dares challenge his title as the world’s number one. I once thought that among those in the same Star Soul Realm, the power gap would be limited. But now I understand. Even within the Star Soul Realm, the gap is just like in the Star Sea Realm; there’s a vast difference between a Titled Strongman and an ordinary Star Sea Realm practitioner. Those who can leverage the laws of heaven and earth... I could not possibly fight against them, no matter what. Perhaps the only one who could is King Jiangshan, who has also comprehended the laws of heaven and earth.

The Unparalleled Knight’s intervention drastically shifted the situation. It wasn’t because he possessed immense strength, but because he had become the straw that broke the balance.

The Unparalleled Knight, like a crazed bull or a roaring rhinoceros, charged into the Hell Monarch’s domain, swinging his battle-axe in a rampage.

"Hell Monarch, die—"

The Unparalleled Knight roared as he leaped high. His axe, spraying terrifying lightning, cleaved down toward the Hell Monarch’s head.

The Hell Monarch lightly raised a hand, fingers forming a lotus shape. A black barrier appeared at his fingertips, holding the ferocious axe at bay. The sharp lightning raged, instantly dyeing the black barrier snow white.

A mocking, cold smile appeared on the Hell Monarch’s face. With a light flick of his lotus-shaped fingers, a terrifying force rippled out. The Unparalleled Knight immediately spat out blood and was sent flying backward.

"I originally thought that the Pope, being so old, wouldn’t have much strength left. I didn’t expect his strength to remain so unyielding with age. However, you... you’re so much younger than the Pope, yet your power has regressed so terribly..." The Hell Monarch saw through the Unparalleled Knight’s facade, a confident smile once again appearing on his face.

With his hands behind his back, he once again shot out numerous law chains, fiercely bombarding the Pope’s law bindings in the sky.

"Old friend, how are you?" the Pope called out anxiously.

"Your Holiness, I am old..." The Unparalleled Knight struggled to his feet. His helmet rolled off, revealing a head full of white hair. His aged face looked even older than the Pope’s.

"But I am the Guardian War God of the Heaven God Sect! I was born for the Holy War, and I shall die for the Holy War!" The Unparalleled Knight’s eyes suddenly snapped open, an explosive aura bursting forth.

"Old friend, you..." The Pope’s face changed drastically.

"I am... the Unparalleled Knight—"

BOOM—

A dazzling white light shot straight into the sky. It was so bright that those watching the battle couldn’t even keep their eyes open.

"CHIRP—" A sharp screech sounded. A streak of white light, like an arrow, rushed onto the battlefield, arriving next to the Unparalleled Knight. It was the unicorn steed he rode.

The Unparalleled Knight mounted his steed. The combined aura of horse and rider instantly merged, seeming to emanate from ancient times.

"Starry Sky Pegasus, Unparalleled Knight—" the Unparalleled Knight shouted. The steed beneath him suddenly reared and neighed, then raised its hooves and charged toward the Hell Monarch. During the charge, the thunder around the Unparalleled Knight instantly enveloped both him and his steed, transforming them into a gigantic spear hurtling toward the Hell Monarch.

"Ruth, if not now, when will you make your move?" The Hell Monarch’s voice deepened. Dark energy converged around him, forming a massive shield in front. The name Ruth, mentioned by the Hell Monarch, caused the faces of several nearby Cardinal Bishops to change drastically.

Ruth was the Saintess of the Papacy. In the Heaven God Sect, she served as a Servant of the Heavenly God and a mouthpiece for divine mandates on Earth, holding a position equivalent to the Pope. Now, Mula, who just took up the Divine Staff and claimed the title of Pope, is an incarnation of the Hell Monarch. Could it be that even the Saintess has betrayed the Heaven God Sect to become his minion? If that’s true, it would be a disaster for the Heaven God Sect!

As the Hell Monarch’s words fell, the sky twisted. A silver-haired woman holding a gigantic vase appeared in the void. Divine radiance rippled from the vase, and an oppressive might bore down like the heavens pressing upon the earth.

The Saintess had actually appeared, chilling the hearts of everyone present. If the Saintess has also betrayed them, what will become of the Heaven God Sect? Is there any hope left for it?

"Ruth, are you not going to act and kill the Pope for me? Otherwise, I’ll reveal your and the Pope’s scandal!" the Hell Monarch shouted ferociously. However, the Saintess in the sky still wore an expression of struggle.

With the help of the Holy Grail, the Saintess briefly resisted the control of the Hell Monarch’s Skill Form. This made the Hell Monarch’s rage intensify. The Saintess was my most crucial hidden piece, yet she slipped from my control at this critical moment!

And at this critical juncture, the Unparalleled Knight’s charge had already reached him.

BOOM—

The Unparalleled Knight ruthlessly crashed into the defensive barrier raised by the Hell Monarch. The violent shockwave blew the Hell Monarch’s hair about, and he was sent flying backward by the impact.

In that moment, brilliance gleamed in the Pope’s eyes. With a sweep of his hand, the Starlight in the sky blazed. Countless stars fell, transforming into a mighty Starry Sky Divine Sword that descended fiercely.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM—

An earth-shattering noise resounded, and a cloud of dust billowed to the heavens. Throughout it all, the Saintess held the Holy Grail and did not move. As the dust settled, a huge hole was visible in the Hell Monarch’s chest. The Unparalleled Knight had brushed past him.

CLIP-CLOP, CLIP-CLOP. The sound of hoofbeats rang out. Suddenly, the unicorn let out a mournful cry before collapsing, its limbs splayed, unable to rise. The Unparalleled Knight also tumbled from the saddle, silent.

"COUGH, COUGH, COUGH... HA HA HA...

Did you really think you could defeat me like this? What you defeated was merely my physical body. As long as I’m within my own laws, I am indestructible."

The Hell Monarch slowly rose. Flames Scorched all around him. In the blink of an eye, the body of the Justice Bishop was reduced to ashes. A soul formed of flames materialized in the void.

The Pope above gasped heavily, large beads of sweat rolling down his wrinkled cheeks. That strike was the strongest we could muster, cooperating with the Unparalleled Knight. If we couldn’t defeat the Hell Monarch with that one blow, we have no strength left to fight. Especially since the Unparalleled Knight used his life to execute that final attack.

Regret showed in the Pope’s eyes, but we still have a chance. The Unparalleled Knight charged forth resolved to die. As Pope, how can I fear death? He turned his gaze toward the Saintess holding the Holy Grail.

"Saintess, give me the Holy Grail."

"Lord Pope!" The Saintess trembled, but her expression instantly became resolute. "The Papacy can be without a Saintess, but it cannot be without a Pope."

As she spoke, the Holy Grail in her hand suddenly burst forth with dazzling white light.
