Yes, the Zhengyi Sect belonged to the Daoist talisman sect. Zhengyi Sect mainly focused on talisman fasting and exorcism, with more emphasis on talismans and incantations. Talismans had many uses in the Righteous Dao, and their uses were almost all-encompassing. For example, they could be as big as inviting a god to descend into the world to protect the country, or as small as making a lover change his mind. The Zhengyi Thunder Technique of the Zhengyi Sect was also quite famous. When a Taoist priest released his power, he would trigger heavenly thunder. This was probably a combination of Qigong and a mysterious spell. In ancient supernatural novels, it was common for Master Zhang to use the Five Thunder Technique to kill demons.
The founder of the Daoist Zhengyi Sect was Zhang Daoling. During the Eastern Han Dynasty, Zhang Daoling wrote 24 Taoist books and called himself the " Xuan Yuan of the Supreme Qing Dynasty." He accepted disciples and set up a religion. He established a grassroots Taoist organization in the Eastern Han Dynasty and founded the Zhengyi Sect. This sect was originally called the " Five Buckets of Rice Sect." Its religious activities were similar to Taiping Road, but it also had its own characteristics. The Zheng Yi Sect had Zhang Daoling as its supreme leader. The organization was quite strict, and later generations called him "Heavenly Master Zhang".

Zhengyi Maoshan Sect was an important sect of Taoism. The Yi Sect originated from the Eastern Jin Dynasty. It took Shangqing Sutra, Shangqing Dadong Sutra and Huangting Sutra as its main classics. It worshiped the female Taoist priest Wei Huacun as the founder of the sect, and the Heavenly Lord Yuanshi and Taishang Taoist Lord as the supreme gods. This sect emphasized the cultivation of the essence, qi, and spirit in the human body. It attached great importance to entering the temple and meditating on the image of the gods. It did not re-refine external elixirs. The ancestral court was Maoshan, so it was also called Maoshan Sect.

After Tao Hongjing, the Qing Sect was also called the Maoshan Sect and became the mainstream of Taoism after the Sui and Tang Dynasties. After the Northern Song Dynasty, Shangqing of Maoshan, Lingbao of Gezao, and Heavenly Master Longhu formed the Three Mountains Talisman Sect, which was gradually respected by the rulers. It had some unique techniques and spells, such as the Five Strongmen Talisman, the Palm Enchanting Seal, etc., but there were also evil spells such as the Seven Fiends Gathering Body (this evil method violated ethics and morality and should not be respected).
The Righteous Sect had Mao Mountain, Lingbao, Qingwei, Jingming, and other sects.
The Righteous One Sect had a situation where they were expelled from the sect. For example, the Righteous One Supreme Purity Heaven Heart Sect's Nine Heavens Thunder Altar had a notice of expulsion. Because some disciples had deceived their teachers, destroyed their ancestors, betrayed their teachers, spread rumors, destroyed the Taoist community, criticized the mysterious subjects, spread Taoism, spread rumors, did not respect their teachers, had an improper style, improper behavior, did not learn well, and lost their way, they established a three-day report to the Thunder Altar according to the subject. According to the law, they respectfully carried out the "Thunder Seizing the Book, Withdrawing the Army, Cutting the Record and Showing the Law" to expel these disciples from the sect, cut off their relations with the sect, and cut off their ties with the altar. From then on, their actions had nothing to do with the sect, and what they did under false names was regarded as bad behavior.

He led the army and the people to fight against the evil Jiao. He personally held a sword and entered the water to kill it, quelling the flood. He was regarded as a god by the people of the state. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, when the peasant uprising was in turmoil, he went into seclusion. The locals built a temple in Guankou to commemorate him. Because he was the second son, he was called Zhao Erlang in the world. Later generations worshipped him as "Erlang God". Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty was granted the title of "Qingyuan Miaodao Zhenjun" and later added the title of "Lord of Sichuan". This sect's Dharmakaya was passed down to Luo Gongyuan during the reign of Emperor Ming of the Tang Dynasty. Immortal Master Luo Gongyuan opened a sect in Huainan Courtyard in Jiangxi Province and respected Zhao Hou as the founder. Since then, the teachings of Emperor Xuan flourished and spread to the world. The Primitive Emperor Sect had a variety of spells, including self-defense, fighting, dealing with interpersonal affairs such as wealth and official fortune, praying for blessings and eliminating disasters, and various kinds of rituals. It was later divided into the Zhengyi Yuan Emperor of the Taoist Sect and the Wu Sect's Yuan Emperor. The two could be distinguished from the altar list.
