First Ancestor was in a slight daze. It seemed as though he still hasn't recovered from the series of attacks Qin Mu had given him. However, Second Ancestor and the rest knew that he was acting like that because Qin Mu didn't want to learn his technique and divine arts. Simply put, First Ancestor was wondering at Qin Mu's rejection.
His original intention was to motivate Qin Mu, and let him discover more of his potential before teaching his own technique and divine arts to him.
Qin Mu was indeed motivated by him and risked his life to transfer himself into Supreme Emperor Heaven. He went through hardships and escaped death several times. Qin Mu's technique finally entered the path and this allowed him to have the ability to be a match for him on the same realm. If it was anyone else, they would all find it difficult to return from Supreme Emperor Heaven alive. The dangers within were simply beyond anyone's imagination.
