"So it is."
Gazing at the towering green giant stone in the distance, Shi Xiaole felt a mix of emotions.
He had speculated about this when he first knew about the green-haired monster. A creature transformed from humans, far more terrifying than the previous poisonous stiff, it couldn't possibly be caused by human efforts alone. It was more like...a gene mutation!
Yes, gene mutation, a term only Shi Xiaole could think of and understand.
After encountering the white tiger and witnessing the anomaly in Qingfeng, Shi Xiaole was even more convinced of this theory.
Ordinary gene mutations go undetected.
In his previous world, even if a mutation occurred, the individual involved would be unaware of it.
But Shi Xiaole of this life, combined with the workings of the Faceless Divine Skill, perceived this change instantly.
He hypothesized that not everything affected by the green giant stone would mutate genetically, such as the other animals on Peony Mountain.
