The entire place went silent as all the participants began wandering about who was so insane as to try and enter the Chaos step while inside a treasure. This could be construed as a crime against the heavens. By hiding in the treasure, the person could be thought of as trying to avoid the Chaos tribulation that accompanied this breakthrough.
