At this moment, shatter the dimensional barrier.

Chapter 155 Transforming Mars, the Foundation of Nordic Magic

The portal opened, and Los Saint stepped inside first, somewhat impatiently.

After all, Mars is not comparable to a satellite like the Moon; it is a proper planet.

Mars has a diameter that is 52% of Earth's and a volume that is about 15% of Earth's. In other words, it would take six Marss combined to equal the size of one Earth.

Although the data doesn't look impressive, if we consider the moon, it would take eighty-one moons to equal the size of one Earth.

Mars' gravity is about 38% that of Earth. In other words, if an average person on Earth can jump half a meter, they can jump one and a half meters on Mars.

Mars is the planet in the solar system most similar to Earth; you could say it's a younger version of Earth.

Mars' rotation period is very similar to Earth's; Earth has a 24-hour day, while Mars has a 25-hour day. Their rotational tilt angles are the same, so Mars experiences all four seasons.

However, a year is quite long, equivalent to 687 Earth days.

Although it is similar to Earth in many ways, its shortcomings are also very obvious. Because its mass is only one-sixth that of Earth, its own gravity cannot hold much atmosphere, and its atmospheric concentration is only 1% of that of Earth. Its core has also cooled down and it has no magnetic field to resist solar wind and cosmic rays.

Billions of years ago, Mars looked exactly like Earth, with continents, oceans, and possibly even life.

However, the core cooled and lost its magnetic field, causing the ocean and atmosphere to dissipate into space in just a few hundred million years.

As soon as Los Santos stepped onto the Martian surface, a wind carrying the smell of rust blew in his face. He wrinkled his nose slightly and looked towards the distant horizon.

A blue sun, no bigger than a football, was slowly rising over the rust-red mountains.

Mars has a relatively low mass, and many of the heavier iron molecules from its early formation remained on the surface instead of settling into the planet's core. As a result, the surface has a high iron content and appears rust-red overall.

The atmosphere on Mars is 90% carbon dioxide, so the sun appears blue on Mars and is about one-third smaller than it appears on Earth.

"Mars...not bad, a youthful version of Earth. Compared to the Moon, it's simply amazing. It's such a good deal for that Zhongli guy." Luo Sheng's divine sense spread out, and in just an instant, he saw the entire Mars from outer space to the planet's core clearly. He couldn't help but feel a little excited.

Mars is not a dead star, but a dormant one. Its core is still functioning, but it lacks the power to start it. Once the core is activated, its magnetic field will be restored.

Once the magnetic field is restored, the water from the melting of the ice that was originally at the poles could cover two-fifths of the Martian surface, an amount equivalent to the Atlantic Ocean.

The more perfect a planet is, the easier it will be to modify it later.

After all, terraforming a planet is much more difficult than terraforming the moon; it's time-consuming and labor-intensive.

“Mars, a planet beyond Earth.” Bai Yuekui walked to his side and couldn’t help but squat down and grab a handful of reddish sand.

In her original world, although human technology was relatively advanced, it was not yet at the point of migrating to Mars. After all, the Martian atmosphere was a problem, and to live on Mars, one would have to build a completely enclosed walled city.

“Silica, volcanic rock, weathered dust…” Bai Yuekui analyzed the Martian soil, saying that the soil was not right. Earth’s soil is organic matter, humus accumulated by plants and animals over hundreds of millions of years, while the soil on Mars is purely inorganic matter, pure sand and gravel.

“This planet isn’t completely dead yet; it’s asleep. If we don’t come, it will continue to sleep until it becomes the Steel Land,” Ereshkigal said, sensing the planet.

Even though Mars is still in a purely physical world, she is a proper high-level god, the embodiment of rules. Although she cannot fully perceive Mars, she can still vaguely know the state of the planet.

"Mars isn't completely dead? According to computer simulations, the core has clearly cooled down." Bai Yuekui was surprised. Although she was about to ascend to godhood, she could only sense the subsurface at most. In her perception, although there was a temperature underground on Mars, it was only a few degrees higher than the surface.

“Of course not. Its core is still alive. Most of its energy is dormant in the core. If the core is activated and its energy is released, Mars can continue to operate energetically for tens of millions of years,” Ereshkigal said. “Although tens of millions of years is just a brief resurgence for a planet.”

"The tallest and largest mountain in the solar system is on Mars, and it's even higher than the Martian atmosphere. The mountaintop is completely above the atmosphere. Let's go take a look." Luo Sheng looked at Bai Yue Kui and Ai Lei behind him and smiled, saying that he had already activated the spatial power of a high-level god with a mass of [7].

The surrounding space blurred, and Ai Lei and Bai Yue Kui disappeared from the spot, crossing half of the Martian equator.

His spatial abilities are now vastly different from what they used to be. Back then, he only had the most basic spatial abilities, and his own strength was far less than it is now. He could only move a few kilometers on the moon.

But now, with his ability to destroy a star with a single blow, coupled with the spatial authority of a high-level god, he can roam freely on a planet even outside the Origin Domain.

Los Santos and his two companions appeared atop Mount Olympus, gazing into the distance. The horizon had taken on an arc shape, with the dark depths of space above and the Martian atmosphere reflecting sunlight below.

Looking up into deep space, you can clearly see two irregularly shaped satellites, one large and one small.

From here, Phobos appears to be about the same size as the Moon from Earth, but its diameter is only 22 kilometers. This is because Phobos is very close to Mars, less than 10,000 kilometers away, which is close to the Roche limit.

From this perspective, Deimos is only the size of a ping-pong ball, with a diameter of only twelve kilometers. It is a very small, irregular satellite and has little value to him. Perhaps in the future, a high-level superhuman will modify it.

"Once Mars is transformed into a habitable planet, nighttime scenes like this will be almost like a fantasy world," Bai Yuekui said, gazing up at the two bright, irregularly shaped satellites, his heart pounding involuntarily.

“Yes, when the civilization on this planet flourishes in the future, the underworld will also become very, very large.” Ereshkigal also realized something.

The underworld, with only Earth and the Moon in contact, is already a separate plane. So what if we add Mars? Wouldn't the underworld then be almost the size of a planet?

How powerful will she be then? Will she be as powerful as Tiamat?

A whooshing sound filled my ears. Twenty-two kilometers below Mount Olympus, a tornado was whipping up dust and creating a dust storm. This was most of the sound of such a planet.

Los Saint was about to reach out and break off a section of the World Tree from Earth's Garden of Eden when he stopped, as if remembering something.

The World Tree is part of Buyer. She complained about breaking off a piece on the moon before, so let her do it herself this time, so she won't complain that I'm bullying her.

clap clap!

Luo Sheng clapped his hands, his eyes instantly turning golden, and omnipotent divine power emanated from his body, then decomposed into elemental power, spreading out like a tsunami.

whoosh—

The elemental forces, like the seven-colored aurora borealis, poured down from the summit of Mount Olympus onto the surface of Mars.

From space, a prominent point on Mars radiates a rainbow of colors, spreading outwards at a visible speed.

"Ouch..." Bai Yuekui raised her arms to block the attack and released her divine power, her feet constantly retreating. In that instant, she was almost blown away: "They released their divine power without even saying hello. I was almost blown into outer space."

"The elemental force is spreading throughout the entire Martian atmosphere." Aileen couldn't help but cover her lips, her eyes widening. Under such immense physical pressure, it was actually possible to release elemental force to cover the entire planet.

Even under these circumstances, this supreme deity couldn't budge Mount Olympus beneath her feet.

Los Saint did this to accelerate the spread of his 'Root Domain' on Mars. With elemental power filling the entire Mars, his domain would begin to infect the Martian core from the surface.

Instead of spreading from one point to the entire Mars.

In just over ten minutes, the originally rust-red planet was shrouded in colorful auroras, and its atmosphere turned cyan.

"Phew~ I've extracted one-twentieth of the elemental power stored on Earth in one go." Luo Sheng stopped releasing elemental power and slowly let out a sigh of relief, his lips lingering: "Now the surface of Mars has become my domain, and you should be able to use most of your power."

"As expected of God." Bai Yuekui exclaimed, his gaze becoming intense. Completely altering the underlying rules of an entire universe was simply amazing; this was practically the pinnacle of science.

I really want to study it, but unfortunately, she's not qualified to access that level of knowledge yet.

It is incomprehensible that it cannot be seen, heard, detected, or perceived. To study it, we must at least have some clues.

With a thought, a silver spatial rift appeared in front of Luo Sheng. The rift expanded, revealing the scene of Eden on the other side. Buyer was there, smiling as he walked over.

"As soon as I sensed that Luna and Eresh had disappeared from Earth, I knew that you must have gone to Mars."

All the gods are connected to the 'World Tree', so she knows where they are. However, she usually doesn't check, as the gods are capable of detecting her presence, and she doesn't want to incur their displeasure.

Los Saint quickly waved his hand: "Stop gossiping, Buyer. If you want to get rich, start chopping trees. Once I activate the Martian core, I'll start chopping trees. My domain already covers the entire Martian surface, so you can unleash your full power."

Buyer's power is equivalent to the power of the earth's veins, so Buyer's current strength has reached the surface level. Moreover, as the World Tree, she nurtured her grass elemental power to the great power level after Tiamat joined her.

Her Grass Elemental Power is essentially a part of the Grass Elemental Power; she's just completing the main power now.

Planetary Source + Grass Element Power = Primary Power God King ascends to the rank of Intermediate Power God King. The next step is to become a Middle Power God King.

Tiamat was only a mid-level Great God-King, while he himself was an advanced mid-level Great God-King, somewhere between a Starburst and a Super Starburst.

Buyer was somewhat surprised: "Are you asking me to cover the entire surface of Mars with forests in one fell swoop?"

“Is it difficult for you?” Los Saint asked, looking at Buyer.

"If you give it your all, it's not difficult."

"That's settled then. You guys fly out of the atmosphere first. I'm going to get a little violent from here on out." A golden and silver spear appeared in Luo Sheng's hand—a declaration from the "Great God."

“Okay.” The three gods nodded, and then each transformed into a meteor of a different color and flew out of the Martian atmosphere.

Los Santos also took flight, looking down at the Martian surface and the massive pass of the enormous Olympus Mons.

Olympus was a massive volcano that erupted continuously for millions of years until it finally cooled down a hundred million years ago.

From Olympus Mons, there is a magma eruption route that leads directly to the core of Mars.

“God’s Declaration, Gungnir.” Los Saint raised his gun high, and the gold and silver light gradually brightened. Runes appeared as flowing light, and seemed to fly out of the gun to form a vortex of words.

hum-

The vortex continued to expand until it could be clearly seen with a telescope on Earth.

【Tree Realm·Gungnir Yggdrasil-Root】

hum-

The runes multiplied, forming a gigantic, luminous tree phantom that stretched for thousands of kilometers.

The Tree Realm·Gungnir Yggdrasil-Root is the last and most crucial of the six powers declared by the Great God. Once unfolded, the 'magical foundation' of the Norse world will appear.

To put it simply, it evokes the 'worldview' of Norse mythology.

Furthermore, it ignores the planet's defenses, directly absorbs the planet's vital energy, and then launches a strike that impacts the entire Norse worldview.

This attack is not merely destructive; it reconstructs the planet's underlying logic and is a blow to the planet itself.

In the Type-Moon universe, that would be a 'world-defining/planet-defining Noble Phantasm'.

What Los Saint needs to do is to inject massive amounts of elemental power directly into the planet's core and then release it slowly, thereby activating the Martian core.

“This power… is so much stronger than it was in Tokyo Bay.” Buyer opened her mouth, almost every time Los Santos allowed her to see extraordinary power she had never seen before.

If this blow were to land, the entire Mars would be shattered into pieces.

Buyer's cheeks flushed with excitement at the thought of it.

Phanes was definitely not that powerful.

She had personally witnessed Los Saint grow stronger, and although she hadn't understood it from the beginning, she was still a participant.

Her current power may already be stronger than those four shadows.

At this moment, the hidden fear of the original world in my heart has completely disappeared.

Los Saint had no idea what Buyer and the other two were thinking. After preparing the Great God's Declaration in his hand, he threw it straight toward Mount Olympus.

[The God's Declaration: Gungnir!] Whoosh—

The divine declaration transformed into a straight beam of light that pierced the Martian crust. The entire planet seemed to melt away without any resistance, and the beam went straight into the core.

At that moment, gold and silver runes spread throughout the Martian atmosphere.

Rumble rumble rumble...

Mars is experiencing a massive earthquake of magnitude seven or higher, with cracks appearing everywhere in the crust and immense core heat gushing out along with a continuous stream of elemental forces.

boom--

The heat released by the core instantly caused the solidified molten layer to tumble and flow again, and the core began to rotate within the flowing molten layer.

Extinct volcanoes on Mars have begun to erupt lava, especially Olympus Mons, where lava fountains reaching heights of over ten kilometers have sprung up.

Mars is erupting with active volcanoes everywhere, the atmosphere is rapidly warming, the ice caps at the North and South Poles are melting, and tsunamis are forming and rushing towards low-lying areas.

The activated core forms the planet's magnetic field, which locks in the ever-losing atmosphere.

The three gods in outer space only saw volcanic eruptions scattered across Mars, red dots, the white ice caps at the planet's north and south poles rapidly disappearing, and blue oceans covering the planet's surface at a visible speed, even submerging the volcanoes.

Then the atmosphere visibly thickened, and even water vapor rose to form white clouds.

"Planetary Genesis," Ereshkigal murmured to herself, staring blankly at the scene.

“How amazing,” Buyer said, snapping out of his reverie.

"Luckily, I put all kinds of instruments in my storage space. Quick, record this! This is valuable research data." Bai Yuekui was surrounded by numerous instruments, frantically adjusting the virtual buttons on them.

……

Mars is changing at a speed visible to the naked eye, so fast that in just two days, Mars has become unrecognizable to astronomers on Earth.

Observatories on Earth also detected the anomaly within an hour of the change on Mars.

All the observatories on Earth, all the astronomers, stopped eating and drinking to watch the observatory images, and all the astronomical probes collectively turned to point at Mars.

"Incredible, absolutely incredible! It's as if Mars has undergone changes that took tens of millions of years in just two days."

"Look! The Valles Marineris in the northern part of Mars has been completely covered by an ocean!"

"The Tharsis Plateau has become land!"

"Oh my God, the gods are terraforming Mars!"

"Oh my god! I can already imagine what it will be like for humans to migrate to Mars soon. I can't believe I'll live to see humans migrate to other planets!"

"What will the gods do next? Will they cover the Martian continent with vegetation, or fill the oceans with fish?"

"The power of the gods is truly unimaginable!"

"Look! The satellite has captured four points of light. Could those be the figures of gods?"

"Damn it, this is the highest resolution I can get. I can only see four pixels!"

"I want to go to Mars right now! Mars is like Earth in its most primitive form!"

"Oh, Gods, your power is truly fascinating. The end of science is theology. Newton and Einstein were absolutely right."

……

Mars is constantly changing, with ongoing geological activity, even causing the once monolithic crust to split into three major plates.

Mars is smaller than Earth, so it has fewer tectonic plates than Earth.

Looking down at the Olympus Pass, where lava was constantly spewing forth, Los Saint raised his hand. A golden-silver lightning bolt flew out from the lava vent and landed in his hand. He looked at Mars with satisfaction.

"If you told illiterate people who have never seen Earth what Mars is like now, they would definitely believe that this is Earth."

“Buyer, it’s your turn.” Los Saint waved to the three goddesses in outer space.

After saying that, he turned and flew towards the Martian surface. The atmospheric temperature was very high, averaging 60 degrees Celsius, and thick clouds were pouring down rain, with thunder rumbling loudly.

Buyer, Aileen, and Baiyue Kui transformed into shooting stars and followed behind Los Saint.

The torrential rain that fell on the earth has formed rivers, which rush along the channels that were formed decades ago towards the newly formed ocean.

“I’m starting.” Buyer hovered in mid-air, a halo of grass and leaves appearing behind him, and the phantom of the World Tree with its silver branches appearing behind him.

A branch of the World Tree appeared in his hand. He released the branch, and it fell straight down to the ground.

After falling to the ground, it quickly took root and grew larger, transforming into the 'Silver Ancient Tree' in just a few breaths.

The ancient tree in Baiyin is so large that ordinary people standing under its trunk and looking up cannot even see the edge of its canopy.

The silver tree roots, like giant dragons, stretched downwards, drilling into the mantle beneath the Martian crust and spreading in all directions.

At the same time, Buyer scattered seeds of grass and trees across the land.

Trees rose from the ground, and grass seeds turned into green fields.

The plants and trees then bloom, bear fruit, and spread their seeds continuously.

The image displayed on Earth's observatory is a green dot that spreads rapidly until it covers every corner of the Martian continent.

This scene drove scientists around the world into a frenzy, not just astronomers, meteorologists, biologists, and even the newly emerging elemental scientists.

"It's green! It's green! The entire landmass on Mars is starting to turn green! It's incredible, it's happening so fast!"

"It's only been a few hours, just a few hours! And the whole of Mars has turned green!"

"Mars has now completely transformed into something resembling Earth!"

Meanwhile, on the moon.

Navelette, who was handling official business, felt a huge fluctuation of elemental power and was somewhat surprised.

He could only sense a massive amount of elemental power pouring out madly toward an unknown place.

Two days ago, Fukaros had already given him the 'Water Elemental Power', and his 'Ancient Dragon Power' was now complete; he was now a 'Complete Dragon'.

Although Fukaros's power decreased slightly after returning the 'power of the water element' to him, the decrease was not significant, and she still possesses considerable water elemental power.

Those water elemental powers seem to have been cultivated by Fukaros in this world and do not belong to the original Teyvat.

Navelette sensed something and was shocked. Her figure transformed into a streak of water light and flew towards the heavens, instantly breaking through the moon's atmosphere and arriving in outer space.

The square dragon eyes looked towards the direction of Mars.

In his eyes, that tiny celestial body, no bigger than a sesame seed, was emanating an aura that chilled him to the bone.

"Such a massive energy reaction! Even from this distance, it can still be clearly felt."

"Mars? Is Lord Tenri already terraforming Mars? Such terrifying power."

"It seems that I can use the power of the ancient dragon to quickly cross the sea of ​​stars and reach Mars. Is this also the great power of Lord Tianli? I really can't understand it."

Within the same fundamental realm, there are the same rules, and the embodiment of these rules, the supreme gods, can all reach each other through this connection without needing to traverse the distant depths of space.

"What a wonderful world! It's developed just as well as Teyvat. If only we had given it to Fontaine!" Navelette said regretfully. Fontaine is one of the top three habitable planets in the solar system.

Only three planets in our solar system are in the habitable zone: Venus, Earth, and Mars.

“Fukaros, you didn’t even try to fight for it, and now it’s been promised to Liyue,” Navelette said.

“This…” Fukaros appeared to the side, somewhat speechless. At the time, she was only thinking about asking Lord Tenri to move Fontaine over as soon as possible, without thinking too much about it.

It's too late to regret it now. She's already made the promise to Morax, and she doesn't have the guts or the shamelessness to beg God to take it back.

Fukalos said dryly, "The asteroid belt is also within the habitable zone. If they were all merged together, they would be about the size of Mars, which is pretty good."

Navelette sighed, "Never mind, I am now a complete dragon. It's just a matter of fusing planets. Although it takes some time and effort, it is still within my capabilities."

"Then everything is up to you, Vilette. I am not capable of assisting you." Fucaros threw off his bundle.

Anyway, Fontaine has a bright future under the rule of God of Heaven, and with the diligent Water Dragon King by her side, she can learn from Funina and become a big star who eats and drinks every day.

火星
At this time, Mars had become a beautiful planet with blue, white, and green colors.

Blue ocean, white clouds, green continent, but there are still sporadic volcanic eruptions, the most obvious being Mount Olympus, which looks like a giant pimple in a blue ocean.

Under the green vegetation covering the entire continent, the Martian atmosphere changed rapidly. Carbon dioxide was quickly consumed by plants and converted into oxygen, and large amounts of nitrogen were also brought into the atmosphere by volcanic eruptions.

The Martian atmosphere is now very similar to Earth's, and at this moment, ordinary people can stand on the Martian surface and take a deep breath.

Next up is Tiamat, who holds the power of 'life and death'.

After another day, the Martian oceans, land, and sky were already teeming with life.

Elemental creatures, Earth creatures, and Teyvat species rapidly formed a complete food chain on Mars, ranging from the smallest bacteria to dragons resembling long-necked dinosaurs.

Los Saint, Tiamat, Buyer, Ereshkigal, and White Moon Queen hovered above the atmosphere, looking down at the planet they had spent three days reshaping.

"Ah~ The feeling of giving birth is so wonderful! Mom has another child in the world, it's so great!" Tiamat cupped her face in her hands, and the maternal aura emanating from her enveloped the entire Mars.

"This is just the beginning. Mars is only the start. There are plenty of planets in the solar system that need you." Luo Sheng's lips twitched as he looked at Tiamat's 'yandere' appearance. Would Tiamat really become a yandere in the future?

"Now that the Mars terraforming is complete, it's time to inform Zhongli to move Liyue over."

Luo Sheng said matter-of-factly with his hands behind his back, but as soon as he finished speaking, a strange emotion arose in his heart, which startled him.

'This feeling… Teyvat's divine sense has come into contact with the gaze of a being of equal caliber?'

Teyvat's divine sense went into a dormant state after his consciousness was transferred over, as he was not yet accustomed to observing two worlds simultaneously.

"As expected." Luo Sheng stroked his chin. After all, everyone in Fontainebleau, including the Water God and the Water Dragon King, had disappeared. It would be strange if Sky Island hadn't been alerted.

Thinking of this, his eyes flickered slightly.

"However, Tianli is definitely not awake yet. It's just a coincidence, let's gamble on whether the Four Shadows of Sky Island will pledge allegiance to a new master."
