The ground beneath them shook violently as the soil loosened, but Su Han and Wu Feng reacted faster.
For Su Han, it was due to the system optimizing his attributes, making his strength soar several times, but for Wu Feng, he had accomplished all this through his own hard work.
While the two were retreating, the massive tiger cub moved in the opposite direction and moved closer to the gigantic white stone. It had a strong desire to devour it, but that was not surprising, as it was the same for Su Han.
When the two of them finally managed to evade the sinking sand, they turned to see the tiger cub clinging tightly to the white stone.
"Shit!"
They both wore expressions of astonishment, but Su Han couldn't help but shout.
Su Han looked at the comical scene and didn't stop himself from laughing out loud, and Wu Feng that was standing close by found it funny.
The laugh didn't last long as the body of the tiger expanded visibly in their eyes.
"Huh!" What was happening was indeed shocking.
But it was not something that needed some kind of divine help to understand. They turned their heads towards the white stone that had been encased in tree roots with some understanding dawning on them.
"This is a divine item." Su Han exclaimed as he had the urge to approach.
"Boss! I also want to touch it!" Wu Feng indeed had the urge to approach the stone too.
"Let's deal with this problem before anything else." Su Han replied with a serious expression.
His gaze was fixed on the ground that they had escaped from. He didn't think that the ground was shaking in the slighest.
When his attention was distracted, he failed to notice vast amounts of golden energy was gathering towards the tiger cub from the white stone. This size of the stone was also shrinking fast, as the energy was infused into the body of the tiger.
The dazzling golden energy flowing from the white stone caused winds to rise and even Su Han that had failed to notice what was going on was atracted.
"Shit! What kind of luck is this?" He complained loudly as he saw the white stone embedded deep releasing streams of golden energy that flowed towards the tiger cub's body.
The energy gathered and encircled it, causing a golden huricane around the tiger, but this huricane's was made up of nothing but energy.
It kept shrinking inwwards, as the tiger absorbed the energy, and the white fur on its body turned dazzling as time passed that one might think it was a light bulb in the darkness.
The devouring force from its body kept increasing with time and even from afar Su Han and Wu Feng could actually see it.
"This little tiger is awesome." Even Wu Feng couldn't help but envy it and Su Han knew exactly where this was coming from, as he realized the size of the tiger had already risen to over a meter in just a short time period.
"It seems that this world had numerous treasures that can strengthen the body and even allow evolution of some species. In the case of the tiger cub, luck seems to be on its side." He commented casually as he watched the vortex covering the tiger increasing while the white stone shrinking.
The situation in the ground was also clearly presented before them as the energy being gathered towards the vortex escaped even underground.
A large portion of the white stone was embeded in the ground, and a this moment, he could barely see the outline.
Seeing the imense stone, he exhaled to calm his turbulent heart.
He then turned to Wu Feng before saying, "Move closer to the vortex and try absorbing some of the energy to enhance your physique."
Hearing this advice, Wu Feng became excited and instantly sprang into action.
Su Han on the other hand, didn't act at all, as he had already come to accept his situation.
He couldn't gain from this short term event, unless he took this stone and used it to absorb energy in the long term, could there be some results he could be proud of.
He was sure that with his Heaven Rewards Hardwork talent, he would gain something in the long run. It was just that the attributes the system had given him were already about four times his original.
"Wait! This golden energy might not be able to allow my strength to advance, but it should not be a problem to fill my body with energy right." When this thought came to mind, he rushed fowards and realized he wasn't that affected by the pressure being emited by the vortex.
He moved very close and sat down, without doing anything, the energy washed over his body and some managed to enter his body.
It was absorbed by his cells, and he felt refreshed.
The feeling was completely different from when he used attribute points to ehnance his physique, spirit and inteligence.
The size of the tiger cub on the other hand had become massive, resembling a giant bull standing at a meter in height and close to two meters in length.
Its body had became sturdy and just standing in place brought about an intimidating presence.
A powerful force was spreading around it and with it carried heat, far greater than a car engine.
Golden energy being absorbed radiated golden hallos around the tiger body, while the momentum it had was like that of a mountain.
Su Han couldn't feel it as his spirit had been enhanced as such this level of pressure failed to have much impact on him.
When the last of the energy was absorbed, the white stone didn't vanish, but it appeared to have shrank in size. The most important thing was that its color had become pale.
Su Han raised his head and looked at the massive tiger cub, whose eyes had become clear, with a certain brightness hidden.
He happened to see the tiger raising its paw about to strike the white stone. But due to his sight, the motion seemed to enter slow motion, before it stopped completely.
The tiger put that paw down and made a cute face, when it looked at the tiny human before him.
It was not the tiger's fault, Su Han had no idea the spiritual pressure he put on the helpless tiger when his eyes fell on it.
He turned his head towards Wu Feng, and discovered even though this guy's size had not changed, his aura had improved slightly. It was even so for the golden lines that had barely taken shape near his palms.
"Interesting! It seems that the orgin of Wu Feng is not simple."
