The Smelting Trial inside the Devil Emperor's Pagoda continued without any hitches…
No one amongst the participants or the facilitators knew that something strange happened. All they could see, was the imagery provided by the monitoring arrays inside the Devil Emperor's Pagoda. As for Raven's situation, what the facilitators are currently seeing, was obviously faked.
In their eyes, Raven could be seen calmly participating in the Smelting Trial but in reality, Raven had actually fallen into a deep slumber in the 89th floor of the real Devil Emperor's Pagoda.
Had Raven wasn't chosen by the Heavenly Elk, what's supposed to happen was for him to experience a great number of challenges within each floor of the pagoda replica.
The rules of the Smelting Trial is simple. As the participants gets transported within, they will arrive at a vast and barren place. There they will face the endless pursuit of devils - Lesser Imps to be exact.
