Shi Feiyang and Perfected Red Staff devised the "Nine Heavens Plan," intending to build nine layers of grand formations above Heaven Beyond Divine Mountain.

The fifth layer was Mars Heaven, formed from gathered Nanming Li Fire. Divine Lord Lesser Yang presided over it as its Celestial Sovereign.
The sixth layer, Jupiter Heaven, was formed from condensed Jupiter essence qi. Master Tianchi
