The status of a Sage!
In Patriarch Ming River's heart, it had taken a major hit!
How could a dignified Sage lack even the courage to face the supreme being, openly becoming the first to run away?!
What a disgrace!
Thus.
Patriarch Ming River had thought that if Ding Ling achieved the supreme realm in the future and gave him a position as a Sage, wouldn't that be wonderful?!
He could dream so beautifully.
It was simply because Ding Ling's talent had once again shocked him!
A technique like Ultra Instinct relied heavily on talent.
Someone without sufficient talent could cultivate for millions or tens of millions of years and still not necessarily gain anything from it!
Take Patriarch Ming River, for example. How many years had he cultivated?
He himself no longer remembered.
He had only barely cultivated Ultra Instinct to the second stage.
As its teacher, Beerus had undergone countless years of arduous cultivation and had only barely reached the first stage!
But what about Ding Ling?
In an instant, he had reached the highest stage!!
What kind of heaven-defying talent was this?!
It was simply explosive!!
No wonder Patriarch Ming River had such overwhelming confidence in Ding Ling and dared to anticipate the supreme position on his behalf!!
Next.
Patriarch Ming River passed quite a few secret techniques to Ding Ling.
Ding Ling accepted them one by one.
And maxed them all out.
Among these secret techniques were quite a few Blood Path secret arts, martial arts secret techniques, Gu Dao secret techniques, and so on.
Patriarch Ming River also liked collecting secret techniques and martial arts.
Why?
Because he wanted to forge his own path!
Naturally, he had to see all kinds of paths and accumulate his foundation.
Only when his foundation was sufficiently deep
