After the breakfast the old man teleports them in a new place in front of them an enormous luminous butterfly shining a pale and calming blue light smaller version orbiting around it the sight was mesmerising .

Gold slowly look down wanting to if something interesting was under this bizarre sight but when looking down he suddenly see that they where all floating in the middle of the air he start to panic the felling of standing on nothing was very disturbing the old man seeing the young starting to loss control look him before starting to talk :

“Calm down Gold I know that the first time is perturbing but you have nothing to fear.”

The young man look at the old man trying to calm down so it was his fault another one of his weird powers .The old man seeing that the kids where still a bit uneasy he summon a small platform for everyone before he start talking :

“You can sit if you preferred …”

He look as the four kids sit before he continue :

“Welcome to the core , the centre of this world the core is equivalent of the dantian for a cultivator but holder don’t use Qi they use universal energy to create a cycle to improve and expand their world .”

The old man look at them , they where all focus on him he continue :

“As the same time we also use something similar to cultivation technique, we call them core pattern they will define your path but unlike cultivation technique nobody will give it to you. You will have to create it yourself , forging it by your will and desire my role as your master will be to guide you to find your own core pattern.”

He start to smile looking at them before finishing :

“Any question ?”

Alicia try to ask a question :

“Sir , how do we become a holder ?”

The old man look a her before answering :

“To become a holder you need a world seed to obtain one , you need luck or another holder.”

The girl frown seeing the reaction the old man try to calm the worry of the young girl :

“Don’t worry I will give one to each of you when your ready.”

The young girl seem a bit relieved by this information the old man continue :

“Good end of the day kids .”

After that the old man let them do what they wanted until the next day.

The next morning after everyone finish his breakfast the old man start to announce the planning of the day :

“Ok kids, for the next few days I will take you one by one , I will start with the cat girl. You three other you can do whatever you want.”

The old man teleport them inside a garden with a small waterfall the man install two cushion and make a sign to her to sit but before she can Sakura take her place looking at Lily with a proud face :

“You sneaky kitten come her.”

The young girl take the little cat in her arms before sitting , she wait for the old man petting the cat , the man amuse by the scene smile waiting for girl to instal before he start to speak:

“How are you feeling about the event of the last days ?”

Lily feel a little confused by the question all the events in the last days happen so quickly:

“I don’t know the last days happen so quickly, all of this is so confusing .”

The old smiling reply :

“Don’t worry I know the last days as been disorientating for all of you.”

The young girl nod before the man continue :

“I need you to send a bit of qi inside he will project your biggest desire , that what will be the base of your pattern.”

Pointing at the machine who just appear between them , it was just a small translucent ball gently floating on top a finely decorated circular piece of metal. Between the beautifully crafted flowers was a circle to send her qi she was ready to her hand one the machine when Sakura jump out of her arms and put her little paw on the contraption and inserting her qi into it.

The crystal ball start emitting a pale white light , it start to rise before stopping above the two surprise the ball start to expand until he stop at the size of a large rock.

The light start to flow inside quickly forming a perfect copy of Lily petting Sakura, seeing a new Lily to pet her inside the ball she try to reach it she jump to try to reach it but her endeavour miserably failed Lily quickly catch the little cat before she hurt herself.

During this time the old was laughing at the cat action, the image quickly dissipate and after of petting to calm the sadden cat she too insert her qi inside the machine . The orb elevate again but this time when the light take form , it was Lily surrounded by little kittens .

The old man start to laugh even harden when the light has taken form again :

“What a funny duo you make you two, good now I want you to imprint this image inside you we will need it in a few days.”

After that the two continue to talk about smaller things the old man taking the time to know better her disciple after a few hours talking the old man send her back for dinner .
