I AM NO PAWN TO THE GODS (STORY OF SOLANKY)

The eight infinite source gods all raised their right hands and slapped them down fiercely. The moment they did so, the space around them didn't collapse, but one could see the space where the corpse of the huge beast lay shattered instantly. They continuously slapped down as if their hands were hammers used for tempering treasures; at their level, even supreme divine source secret artifacts were useless to them because every part of their bodies was at least comparable to an artifact or weapon on that level.

After several slaps and knitting with telekinesis, one could see a full body of silver armor take form in the middle of the infinite source gods, which are several hundred light-years tall. The moment the last knit was done, a heavy pressure burst out of the armor, which even suppressed the infinite source gods around. Then suddenly they could see the space above the moon, where the golden armor appeared to have shattered space, and the moon beneath that space too was sliced in two perfect hemispheres. Then a massive beast appeared from the shattered space; it looked exactly like the one the golden-armed figure had tossed out.

One of the infinite source gods said it was a living entity of the moon. During their refinement, they learned the actual name of the beast diagram carved on the moon, and they learned that its actual name was the entity of the moon. It was named that because it had a habit of carving defensive techniques and armor-refining methods on the surfaces of every moon it came into contact with. The entity of the moon saw the shiny silver armor crafted by the infinite source gods, and it instantly shifted the space around the armor, and it appeared directly before it. The entity of the moon's body started shrinking from millions of light-years to a few thousand kilometers, and its body transformed into that of a humanoid figure with a long, scaly black tail and three curved horns on his head.

Although the entity looked much smaller in size compared to the infinite source gods, the pressure alone it emanated was way stronger than them, so they just watched it without interfering. The entity of the moon stretched out his fingers, which had sharp claws on them, and it started carving some mysterious engravings on the surface of each scale.

After inscribing on the last scale, the armor stopped emitting its oppressive force and rolled it into a ball. It started shrinking in size till it shrunk to the size of a tennis ball into a silver-colored orb. The entity of the moon grabbed it and then said, "Thank you for helping us craft this armor. Your efforts will be paid now." He waved his hands, and several infinite world cores flew to the eight infinite source gods, together with a body armor for infinite source gods. The entity of the moon said, "These armors, although weaker than this one you have crafted, are still enough to resist any attacks at the infinite source god/devil level and amplify your total strength by three times compared to other infinite source gods/devils. For now, I have to leave with this armor; if not, a great calamity will befall this unknown boundless infinite source world."

The Entity of the Moon looked at the eight infinite source gods and nodded before disappearing through the cracks it came from. The moment it did the scene before Solanky switched, and before him was a very chaotic battlefield where countless beings and entities were engaged in a never-ending battle that seemed to have gone on since the beginning of time. Solanky was shocked because the aura from these beings in battle surpassed any infinite source god and was comparable to the entity of the moon.

The entity of the moon seemed to be escaping from something. As he carried the silver orb, Solanky turned and looked behind the entity of the moon, and he saw a large horde of forsaken numbering in the billions all chasing the entity, and on the nest of the forsaken stood a red-colored horned devil with eight wings behind him, and even from the distance Solanky could tell the devil's power was a notch slightly below the golden-armored figure.

The devil was about to look in the direction of Solanky, but the entity instantly teleported beside him and lashed out with his long tail, which crashed into the chest of the red devil, and it was sent tumbling into the distance. The entity of the moon sped up, and instantly its speed reached 10 million times the speed of light. At their level on the eternal battlefield, there were no laws, so every action taken there defied some basic concepts like the laws of inertia or motion, which were general laws in every source world.

The entity of the moon started teleporting to different unknown boundless source worlds. During this time, the entity of the moon had refined over tens of millions of its scales to look exactly like the sliver orb. And with every unknown boundless source world he passed by, he would intentionally release over a thousand silver orbs into that world. Solanky was confused by the actions of the entity of the moon. With the original orb still in its possession, he could still track the events that happened, but in the distance behind the entity of the moon, he saw the red eight-winged devil approaching with more terrifying speed, which made the entity of the moon's speed look like a bicycle trying its best to outpace a supercar.

Solanky saw the perspective of the scene change as if he were watching birds flying in the sky above him; he instantly knew that this time round, after the nine hundred and ninetieth unknown boundless source world, the entity of the moon dropped the real orb together with the fake orbs like how he used to. Luckily the red eight-winged devil didn't bother destroying the falling orbs like he used to, which delayed him, because every time he did so, the entity of the moon would have visited tens of unknown boundless source worlds.

The scene then changed to a huge supercluster, which was trillions of light-years large, and that world belonged to the ancient devils and ancient gods, where the ancestor of the ancient devil gods, Morogun, was born. The orb split into two, with one drifting away from the supercluster and the other falling onto a desolate planet. The scenes before Solanky were split in two, with the first scene showing half of the orb on the desolate planet and the second scene showing his current infinite source world with the orb being grabbed by Lushan in these early days when he was just a mere high-level devil.

Solanky was so confused and didn't understand why, despite all the places and worlds the orb could fall, it still fell on familiar grounds, meaning someone would carefully guide the orbs to these locations. He opened the third vertical eye on his forehead and used the observation technique; what he saw shocked him greatly.

He saw his Supremo body walking across timelines just to make sure no accidents occurred for his original body to miss obtaining the orb from Lushan as a gift before confronting the devil ancestor back then, and the other half, which fell on the desolate planet, was returned by Morogun to their realm as the two silver boards. During that time, the Supremo body split that orb and pulled out the manuals that had the source-defying body technique inscribed on them and imparted it to Lushan and the past Solanky before his reincarnation. The scene then cut to a fractured infinite source world that belonged to the ancient devils and gods. He could see Morogun fleeing with serious injuries after slaying three infinite source gods after an intense battle. Morogun claimed the spoils of battle, and from that battle, countless worlds were destroyed, and there were countless corpses and space fragments. 

Among these corpses was the lifeless body of his Supremo body which Morogun collected together with the corpses to perform a repossession technique but brutally failed as his consciousness was polluted to possess another dead or unconscious being. Morogun then decided to use the last of his power to compress the fractured infinite source world into the size of a supercluster. They then appeared above the newbies' continent of the Sky Hybrid Sect. Morogun created an alternate world with three separate spaces and spread the remaining living creatures across these spaces. 

After going inside that ship, the arrowhead ship Solanky used to pick his teammates, he ejected the corpse of one ancient devil god to the outside world, which lay beneath the lake, indicating that being was cast out. Everything started to make sense to Solanky, that all the past events were a calculative move to achieve a greater common goal in the future.
