Wudang School: Originated in Wudang Mountain, Hubei, and worshiped the Taoist school of "Zhenwu Emperor". Wudang Mountain is called Taihe Mountain. Wudang Taoism has a long history, and the Wei and Jin dynasties were the places where Taoist priests cultivated their truths, and were known as "fairy rooms". In the Jin Dynasty, Wudang Mountain "learned the Tao by hundreds, one after another". (Jin Wang Shao's "Southern Yongzhou Chronicle") Dai Meng, Xie Yun, and Liu Qiu are all people who live in Wudang and become immortals. During the Tang Zhenguan period (627-649), the Taoist priest of Wudang Mountain prayed for the rain, Taizong built the Five Dragons Temple, and built the Taiyi Temple and Yanchang Temple when the Emperor of Daizong. In the five dynasties, Gao Dao Chen Qian Yin Wudang Mountain Nine Room Rock, more than 20 years of obedience to the valley calendar. In the second year of Song Zhenzong Tianxi (1018), he enshrined Wudang Zhenwu God as "Zhentian Zhenwu Ling should bless the Holy Zhenjun", and the influence of Wudang Taoism in the Song Dynasty was increasing, and Wudang Taoism has become famous in the world.

Ming Chengzu and Ming Shizong successively camped Wudang Palace, which lasted for decades. The huge building complex of eight palaces, two views, 36 nunnery, 72 rock temples, 39 bridges and 12 pavilions was newly built. Ming Chengzu selected 400 high Taoists from all over the country to preside over Wudang Taoist affairs, to Jiajing (1522-1566), there are hundreds of Taoist priests in the major palaces of Wudang Mountain, and there are more than 10,000 Taoist officials, Taoist priests, military soldiers, craftsmen and so on in the whole mountain. Wudang is a famous Taoist mountain, there have always been Taoist priests of various factions living together in the late Yuan and early Ming Dynasty, Wudang Mountain Taoist faction has Wudang Qingwei faction, Quanzhen faction, Zhengyi faction, Maoshan faction and so on. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Sanfeng entered Wudang Mountain to practice, and then traveled far away from the mountain, Ming Chengzu sent people to visit the "true immortal" Zhang Sanfeng many times, but could not, and expanded the influence of Wudang Taoism. Zhang Sanfeng lived in Wudang Mountain to cultivate Taoism, his disciple Qiu Xuanqing lived in Wulong Palace, Lu Qiuyun lived in Nanyan Palace, Liu Guquan and Yang Shancheng lived in Zixiao Palace, forming a Taoist school with Zhang Sanfeng as his teacher, known as Wudang Taoist School. Liu Biyun, another disciple of Zhang Sanfeng, was later respected as the patriarch of the Wudang Langmei School. "Langmei faction" to worship Emperor Xuandi, also known as Wudang Benshan faction, is a branch of the school, its transmission system for "Bishan to pass the sun and the moon, the way to the natural, the sex through Xuande, the Qing micro ancient Taino" and so on. Zhang Sanfeng's Wudang sect is different from the Quanzhen Taoist doctrine and sect style. The sect worships the "Zhenwu Emperor", emphasizes the unity of the three religions in thought, takes the "Tao" as the common source of the three religions, takes morality, benevolence, righteousness, loyalty and filial piety as the foundation, and attaches importance to the cultivation of the inner Dan, with special emphasis on sexual skills. Zhang Sanfeng is strong in martial arts, good at boxing and sword, Wudang Taoist boxing skills, according to legend, was founded in Zhang Sanfeng. Since the Ming Dynasty, the Taoist priests of all factions who have entered Wudang have called themselves Wudang Dao, and they all take Zhang Sanfeng as their ancestor.

The Complete Works of Zhang Sanfeng and the Chronicles of Taihe Mountain are the main sources for the study of Wudang Dao. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, Wudang had the largest order, with the largest Taoist complex and precious idols and ritual vessels. Wudang "Xuanyue" has become the first mountain in the world. Wudang Taoism has gone through war and chaos, and there are still more than 400 buildings such as six palaces and two views, and more than 7,000 cultural relics. There are more than 100 Wudang Taoist priests. The inner fist of the Wudang Xuanwu School is well-known at home and abroad, and Wudang Dao is still famous for its cultivation and martial arts.

True Dao Sect: Formerly known as "Dao Dao Sect", it was one of the three new Dao sects that appeared in the north of the early Jin Dynasty. The founder, Liu Deren, is a carefree son. A native of Leling, Cangzhou (now Shandong). Claiming to have met an old man with white eyebrows when he was twenty-one years old, he was awarded the "Tao Te Ching" Essentials (one said to be awarded the "Mysterious Dao Tips"), which was founded in the second year of the reign of the Jin Emperor (1142). During the mission, he used the technique of summoning gods and impeaching ghosts to cure people's diseases, and for a time there were many believers, calling themselves Daojiao. The five transmissions to Li Xicheng (Cheng) were divided into two factions, and because Yuan Xianzong supported the Li faction, it was renamed the True Dao Sect. It is taught to take the "Tao Te Ching" as its purpose, and also absorb Confucianism and interpret some thoughts, and the precepts listed are nine: one is to treat things as oneself, and not to be cruel and hateful; two is to be loyal to the king, filial piety to relatives, sincere to others, no words, no evil voice; three is to eliminate evil and prostitution, and keep quiet; four is to be far away, to be poor and poor, to work hard and eat, and to use what is used by people; five is not to be a gambler, not to practice theft; six is not to drink alcohol and meat, and to have enough food and clothing, and not to be arrogant; seven is to be humble and weak-minded, and to be with the light and dust; eight is to be humble and light; and nine is to be content and not humiliated, and to know that there is no death. History called it "to be miserable and dangerous, not to take from others, not to be extravagant to oneself". The True Dao Sect does not pay attention to the art of ascension and refining in cultivation, but pays attention to silent prayer, and does not worship many ghosts and gods, and does not use talismans to cure people's diseases, but "silently prays for the void", does not turn into a fate and begs for food, advocates Taoist monks to become monks and do asceticism, and its palace view is called "hermitage" at the beginning, and the tomb is called "tower", which is similar to Buddhism and spreads in Hebei. In its heyday, its spread area had been west out of Guanlong to Shu, east to Qilu to the seashore, and the surface of the Antarctic Jianghuai. After more than ten years of decline.

Taiyijiao: or Taiyi, one of the three new Taoist schools that emerged in the north of the early Jin Dynasty. Jin Tianjunzhong (1138-1140) Xiao Baozhen was founded in Weizhou (located in present-day Ji County, Henan). The name "Taiyi" used by this sect has two theories. One said that the sect was called Taiyi because of the three-element law, and because of its name, it was called Taiyi" ("Yuan Shi Shi Lao Biography"). One said that it was called because of the "vitality is decayed, Taiji is dissected, and the righteousness of the pure one" is obtained (to the third year of the Yuan Dynasty, "Rebuilding the Taiyi Guangfu Wanshou Palace Tablet"). It is rumored that Xiao Baozhen was once given the "secret urn" by the immortal saint, and was good at the technique of "praying and forbidden", and also used the talisman to cure people's diseases, so his disciples were very numerous, and the court was famous. In the eighth year of Emperor Jin Xizong's reign (1148), the imperial court summoned him to the palace to treat the queen's illness, and was deeply courteous, and gave him the nunnery where he lived as "Taiyi Wanshou Guan". After his death, Yuan Shizu posthumously gave him the title of "Taiyi Yiwu Zhenren", and changed the "Taiyi Wanshou Concept" to "Taiyi Guangfu Wanshou Palace". The second ancestor Xiao Daoxi (surnamed Han) and the third ancestor Xiao Zhichong (surnamed Wang) inherited his way. Yuan Shizu gave the fourth ancestor Xiao Fudao the title of "Taiyi Zhonghe Renjing Zhenren". The fifth ancestor Xiao Jushou (surnamed Li) also got the courtesy of the ancestor of the Yuan dynasty, to the twelfth year of the Yuan Dynasty (1274), ordered to build a palace in Liangjing, ordered it to preside over the ancestral hall in the palace, and worship the six gods, and gave the Taiyi palm the seal of the patriarch, and gave the name "Taiyi Evolution Zhenchang Zhenren". The heir of the sixth ancestor, Xiao Quanyou (whose surname is Li), was also named a "real person". In the second year of the reign of Yuanrenzong (1351), the seventh ancestor Xiao Tianyu (whose surname was sacrificed) set up a scripture in the capital Changchun Palace (now Beijing Baiyun Temple) as a "Taichong Xuanxuan Performing Dao Zhenren" and the great master of the Xuanjiao sect Zhang Liusun and the Quanzhen Taoist master Sun Deyan. In the first year of Taiding (1324), the seven ancestors led thousands of mages and Taoist priests to build a golden urn in the Dadu Chongzhen Wanshou Palace in Wu Quanjie, Xia Wenyong, and Liu Shangping. The Taiyi Sect has been in full swing for 200 years, and Yuan Wei is still active. After the Seven Ancestors, there is no historical data and the circulation is unknown. The Taiyi Sect emphasizes the Fu Zhai Jiao, which is similar to Zhengyi, and it stipulates that Taoist priests must become monks, which is different from Zhengyi. The ancestor of the sect stipulated that anyone who was not an heir of the surname Xiao would change his surname to Xiao. The Yuan Dynasty was deeply influenced by science, and took faithfulness and filial piety as the key to life.

Zhengyi: also known as Zhengyi Sect and Zhengyi School. In the later period of Taoism, the Dragon and Tiger Sect was the main backbone of the collection and integration of various Fu Gong sects to form the Fu Gong School. The formation time is in the eighth year of Yuan Chengzong Dade (1304), which is marked by the 38th generation of Yuan Chengzong Feng Zhang Youcai as "the head of the Zhengyi sect and the presiding over the three mountain talismans". The main Taoist schools are: Dragon and Tiger Sect, Maoshan Sect, Gesoap Sect, Shenxiao Sect, Qingwei Sect, Donghua Sect, Tianxin Sect, Jingming Dao, Taiyi Sect, etc. This sect was formed in the eighth year of Dade. From the fourteenth year of the Yuan Dynasty (1277), Zhang Ling's descendants were appointed as Heavenly Masters and appointed to be in charge of Jiangnan Taoism. The religious affairs of all factions in Jiangnan must obey the orders of the Heavenly Master (the Quanzhen Dao in the south is no exception), or the Heavenly Master asks for orders from the imperial court (such as the Taoist priest's edict, etc.), so that the Heavenly Master of the past dynasties gradually became the co-masters of the various Fu Zheng factions in the Jiangnan, and prepared the leadership conditions for the formation of the Zhengyi. On the other hand, due to the special reverence of the Heavenly Masters of the past dynasties, the Dragon and Tiger Sect under his leadership naturally obtained good conditions for development, especially the development of its tripartite Xuanjiao was unprecedented. This, in turn, prepared the organizational conditions for the formation of the positive one. On the basis of the above, the various Fu sects gradually strengthened their participation and integration, and the centripetal force of the Heavenly Master Dragon and Tiger Sect was continuously strengthened. Therefore, in the eighth year of Dade, Zhang Hecai was appointed as the "Zhengyi Sect Master, Presiding over the Three Mountains Fugong" as a symbol, and it was formed together. Since then, Taoism in the whole country has been divided into two major factions, Zhengyi and Quanzhen, and the Ming and Qing governments only recognized these two factions. The Zhengyi faction formed by the collection of all the Fu Gong factions is headed by Zhang Ling's heirs (the heavenly masters of the past dynasties) and the "Zhengyi Jing" is the main classic. The main religious activities are Fu Zheng Zhai Jiao and séance to exorcise ghosts. The Taoist priests of this sect are allowed to have a family, they can not leave the house, they do not live in the palace, and the rules and precepts are not very strict. After the original Fu Gong sect was merged into Zhengyi, due to various reasons, some small sects gradually merged with other sects and became extinct, such as Ge Soap Sect, Taiyi Sect, etc., while some small sects retained the inheritance of the original small sect under the recognition of Zhengyi Sect. Such as the Dragon and Tiger Sect, Maoshan Sect, Wudang Dao, Jingming Sect, Qingwei Sect, etc. They were inherited from the Ming Dynasty to the Republic of China. It's just that after the Ming Ye, due to the lack of strong support from the royal family, most of them declined.
