Different readers have different opinions on the true identity of Patriarch Bodhi, but judging from the content of the book, Patriarch Bodhi is not only proficient in the seventy-two transformations, but also a patriarch-level immortal. Even Tathagata Buddha does not know this immortal. existence.

In the sixth chapter, there was an immortal who fought with Sun Wukong for 300 rounds. There was still no winner because they were both using the seventy-two transformations. This immortal was Erlang Shen. Regarding Erlang Shen's seventy-two transformations, it is called the Eighty-nine Mysterious Techniques in the list of gods. It is the unique secret technique of Yuanshi Tianzun. This also shows that Patriarch Bodhi and Yuanshi Tianzun should have a certain relationship. On King Wu's way to defeat Zhou, Erlang Shen's Eighty-nine Mysterious Skills are also a way to escape, but they are unpredictable. There are also Erlang Shen's seventy-two transformations, which seem to be a bit restrained by Sun Wukong's seventy-two transformations.

Erlang Shen’s master is Master Yuding in the list of gods, one of the Twelve Golden Immortals, and the disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun. From this point of view, both Yuanshi Tianzun and Yuding Zhenren will have changed seventy-two. After carefully reading the list of gods, we will find that there is a very powerful monster in the book. He is the leader of the Seven Monsters of Meishan, his name is Yuan Hong, and he can also perform the seventy-two transformations and somersault clouds. However, Erlangshen was not Yuan Hong's opponent on the road to the war of gods, because Yuan Hong's seventy-two transformations were taught by Empress Nuwa.

On the day of the birth of Empress Nuwa, King Zhou of Shang actually wrote a poem to blaspheme her. Later, in order to punish King Zhou of Shang, Empress Nuwa used demon flags to summon demons from all over the world. Therefore, many readers thought that Empress Nuwa He is the ancestor of all monsters and is in charge of the life and death of the monster clan in the world. As for the Seven Monsters of Meishan in the list of gods, especially Yuan Hong, only Empress Nuwa's magic weapon can restrain his seventy-two transformations. This means that Yuan Hong's seventy-two transformations should have been taught by Empress Nuwa. Therefore, Yuan Hong is listed in the book. He was killed by the Jiangshan Sheji Tu of Empress Nuwa, and became a famous person on the list of gods.

As mentioned earlier, Yuan Hong’s seventy-two transformations were taught by Empress Nuwa, so Empress Nuwa should also have achieved seventy-two transformations. It is said that after the emergence of heaven and earth, Empress Nuwa used seventy-two transformations to create seventy-two kinds of creatures in one day. After a long period of time, Empress Nuwa created all things in the world and used clay to create human beings, becoming the mother of the earth.

Therefore, many readers think that Nuwa’s seventy-two transformations were used to create all things in the world, and other gods made them.
