In fact, the great gods in ancient times, such as Pangu and Nu Wa, all turned into Taoist bodies.
PS: (1) Ordinary monsters, no matter what their noumenon is, have to go through the step of "transfiguration" (transfiguration into human form) to become Tao bodies before they can continue to practice.
(2) When Nu Wa made man, she directly made the clay into the appearance and structure of Tao (for example, the five internal organs correspond to the five elements, and the body has many meridians and acupoints), but these structures are not necessary for animals, plants and abiotic beings. Therefore, Terran is the "innate way" and the spirit of all things.
(3) Because human beings are innate Tao bodies, they can practice directly without transformation, so compared with monsters, they can really be said to be "winning at the starting line".
(4) The above refers to ordinary monsters. There are also some characters, with high heels and deep blessings, or with great opportunities, luck, wisdom and perseverance. They are not necessarily human beings, but they are very talented in cultivation. Such as the Monkey King, Zhu Bajie, Niu Wangmo and so on.
