The two walked one after another, passing through the light barrier and entering the canyon.

As soon as they entered the canyon, they were met with a wave of extremely pure spiritual energy, carrying the rich fragrance of soil and the fresh scent of vegetation. Mo Xuan took a deep breath, and his spirit was instantly invigorated.

He looked around and saw that within the canyon, the sky was clear, white clouds drifted leisurely, distant mountain ranges were verdant, and nearby spirit springs gurgled. Beneath towering ancient trees, exotic flowers and herbs vied for beauty, and spirit birds and exotic beasts played among them... it was truly a scene of peace and tranquility, an Immortal Scene.

"This... this..." Mo Xuan looked at the scene before him, and for a moment, he didn't know what to say.

As the young master of the Qilin Clan, he was not someone with shallow knowledge. On the contrary, he had seen many Immortal Blessed Lands, and in terms of scenery, many were far superior to this place. Even the density of spiritual energy, comparable to this place, was as common as goose feathers.

However, places as peaceful and serene as this were not common. Especially in the past few hundred years, he and Lin Yan had mostly encountered desolate and barren lands. To suddenly see such scenery today had a huge impact on his senses.

Lin Yan was merely an Earth Immortal, so how could his dwelling be so good? As for him, Seven-Colored Qilin Mo Xuan, he was the thirty-fifth hundred and seventy-sixth generation great-grandson of the Ancestor Qilin, considered a legitimate young master of the Qilin Clan. Compared to this place, his cave dwelling within the clan was not just a little bit inferior.

Seeing Mo Xuan's astonished expression, Lin Yan's small vanity was greatly satisfied. He pretended to be nonchalant and smiled, "Xiao Mo, how is it? My home environment is not bad, right? Of course, it can't compare to your Qilin Cliff in the Qilin Clan. Please don't laugh."

"Uh... how could it be, how could it be, it's very good, very good," Mo Xuan said somewhat sheepishly. He had bragged to Lin Yan before about how good his cave dwelling was. But in reality, his cave dwelling was just a cave dwelling, and its scenery and environment couldn't compare to Lin Yan's Canyon Home at all.

But the pride of the Qilin Clan made him unwilling to admit this fact. He secretly resolved that when he returned to Qilin Cliff, he would definitely redecorate his cave dwelling. He absolutely could not lose to this Death Land Dragon, Lin Yan.

Just as Lin Yan was about to lead Mo Xuan further in for a tour, the ground beneath them suddenly began to vibrate. Mo Xuan looked up and saw nine figures of varying lengths rapidly... wriggling towards them from all directions within the canyon. Their plump bodies continuously rubbed against the ground, shaking it with each movement.

These were none other than Lin Yan's nine Earth Dragon subordinates, from Lin Er to Lin Shi. They had received information through the formation that their boss had returned and had rushed over to meet him.

After not seeing each other for several hundred years, each of them had grown several times larger. The largest, Lin Er, was almost two hundred zhang long, while the smallest, Lin Shi, was over a hundred zhang long.

The nine Earth Dragons, seen from afar, looked like nine earthy yellow giant pythons. They were all enveloped in dense Earth Element Essence, and their auras were much stronger than when Lin Yan had left.

The nine Earth Dragon subordinates stopped in front of Lin Yan, their front ends raised high, continuously emitting happy "hissing" sounds. Their massive bodies writhed back and forth on the ground, expressing their excitement and joy at seeing their boss again.

Lin Yan looked at his subordinates before him, a warmth rising in his heart. He used his Divine Sense to stroke each of their heads, smiling and saying, "Alright, alright, I'm back. It seems you haven't been slacking off these past few hundred years, and your cultivation has improved quite a bit."

"Boss, boss, you're finally back!"

"Boss, we missed you so much!"

"Boss, did you bring us any gifts?"

"Boss, boss, is that spirit beast next to you one you subdued?"

"Stupid Lin Qi, that spirit beast's aura is even stronger than the boss's. How could the boss subdue him? He must be a friend of the boss, we should call him senior, understand?"

The subordinates greeted Lin Yan in a torrent of words, and from time to time, they curiously sized up the handsome Seven-Colored Qilin beside him.

Listening to the subordinates chatter about what had happened since they parted, Lin Yan could clearly feel that their intelligence had improved significantly over the years. It seemed that while he was away, the subordinates had completed the assignments he had left them quite well.

Lin Yan patted Lin Er, who was closest to him, and then pointed to the other subordinates, introducing them to Mo Xuan, "Xiao Mo, let me introduce you. These are the clan members I told you about, Lin Er, Lin San... Lin Jiu, Lin Shi. They have opened their intelligence, but have not yet taken human form."

He turned to the subordinates and said, "This is Senior Mo Xuan of the Qilin Clan. He is my friend and a distinguished guest of our canyon. Everyone, be polite."

Hearing Lin Yan's introduction, the subordinates immediately quieted down. Mimicking what Lin Yan had taught them before, they all obediently prostrated themselves and spoke to Mo Xuan in unison with their divine sense: "Greetings, Elder Mo Xuan!"

The voices of the nine Earth Dragons were perfectly synchronized, possessing quite a presence. However, their tender voices, combined with their massive bodies, always gave a comical impression.

Mo Xuan, however, did not think so. Seeing these Earth Dragons so "well-behaved" and calling him elder, he immediately found these little Earth Dragons very cute.

"Mhm... Hello. You... are very good." Mo Xuan greeted the Earth Dragon subordinates.

Seeing that Kirin Senior had praised them as soon as they met, the Earth Dragon subordinates wriggled happily on the ground.

"Kirin Senior, you are also very good!"

"Silly Xiao Shi, you should call him Elder Mo Xuan! Elder Mo Xuan, you are very polite!"

"Elder Mo Xuan, I found a very, very poisonous spiritual herb, shall I take you to try it?"

"Elder Mo Xuan, don't listen to Xiao Ba's nonsense, that herb will give you diarrhea if you eat it."

"Elder Mo Xuan, let me take you to tour our canyon, our canyon is so beautiful."

"Elder Mo Xuan, Elder Mo Xuan, I'll take you on a tour, I'm most familiar with this place, I know where the most fun is."

"Nonsense, I'm the most familiar, I'll take Elder Mo Xuan."

Lin Yan: "..."

Seeing the Earth Dragon subordinates surrounding the Seven-Colored Qilin Mo Xuan and walking towards the depths of the canyon, Lin Yan was a little dumbfounded.

The intelligence level of the Earth Dragon subordinates was only about five or six years old. How could a Qilin with Heavenly Immortal cultivation act like a child, not only unable to greet properly, but also playing with a bunch of children so enthusiastically?

Feeling somewhat speechless, Lin Yan naturally wouldn't accompany them. He had important matters to attend to.

He arrived at the central part of the canyon, the core array eye of the Nine Palaces Earth Vein Great Array. With a thought, the Primal Chaos Plate flew out from his body and hovered in the air.

He waved his hand to open the spatial entrance of the Primal Chaos Plate and released the Spirit Beasts, such as the Jade Spirit Deer herd, Colorful Cloud Sparrows, and Hundred Flower Bees, who were cultivating in the Clear Spirit Space in the Upper Four Layers. With another wave of his hand, the Star Tear Orchids, Clear Heart Bamboos, Condensed Jade Grasses, and the seedling of the mid-grade Spiritual Root, the Pure World White Lotus, were also released.

The Spirit Beasts were suddenly brought to a new environment and were greatly alarmed. When they saw Lin Yan nearby, they finally relaxed and began to survey their new surroundings.

"This is my Canyon Home, and it's where you will live from now on. You can look around, choose a place you like, and tell me if you have any requirements, and I'll modify it for you." Lin Yan said to the Spirit Beasts covering the ground.

These Spirit Beast tribes were all carefully selected by Lin Yan. They already knew that Lin Yan was going to find them a new safe residence. Now that they saw that this residence was not only safe but also had an excellent environment, they were all very satisfied. When they heard Lin Yan's words, they hurried towards the depths of the canyon, looking everywhere for an environment they liked.

As for the Spiritual Roots and Plants, most of them took root on the spot. In the entire canyon, only here had the most dense spiritual energy, so they naturally chose to take root here first.

After arranging these Spirit Beasts and Spiritual Roots, Lin Yan prepared to upgrade the quality of the entire canyon's environment next.
