The legend of White Snake is said to be related to Hinduism. The establishment of Hinduism began with two Nagas stirring the sea of milk. There is also a story similar to the legend of the white snake in Southeast Asia. The Story of True Wax written by Zhou Daguan in the Yuan Dynasty describes that the King of True Wax has a "Heavenly Palace". Every night, he climbs the golden pagoda of the Heavenly Palace and has sex with a snake spirit who has turned into a female body, which is also the embryonic form of the story of human-snake copulation.

In addition, lamia in Greek mythology was transformed from a snake. Later, he married a young man named Menippus Lixius. On the wedding day, a man named de Vita apollonius came and found that lamia was a snake.

In addition, in the story book of the court storyteller in the Southern Song Dynasty, there is a story of "Pisces falling in love", in which it is mentioned that the white snake herring cultivated into a fine, fell in love with Xu Xuan (not Xu Xian), stole official silver, opened a pharmacy and other plots, which have the same effect as the later Legend of the White Snake.

And in other literary works, there are similar stories. Therefore, some scholars believe that the story of the White Snake may be a legend that combines the story of China with Indian mythology.
