  2. In Spore, Zheng Yi is still the leading Taoist Sect, whereas Quan Zhen just being "import" into locally not very long ago (Starting from Master Li Zhi Wang and then now, Jiu Chai Ba Cheng Huang Miao, Queenstown Zhong Yi Miao, etc).

    Almost all local Taoist Priests are the disciples of Zheng Yi Sect.

    Usually local Zheng Yi Priests will engaged in rituals like for Deities' Birthday Celebrations, Salvaging for the death, etc.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    The next famous Sect in Spore is Mao Shan.

  4. Dear Bro, Mao Shan not necessary to be associated with the black art, just that alot of ppl tend to make use of the tailsmans to do certain events or so.

    In almost all Taoism Sects, tailsmans are being used, just that what purposes they need to make use of such "objects" and what objectives they are looking into, etc.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    In Spore, Zheng Yi can be represents by all dialect Taoist Priests like Hokkien, Cantonese, etc, whereas Quan Zhen Priests can only be seen in temples, etc.

    One main differences that can be easily seen will be the Priests, for Zheng Yi Priests, we dont need to keep long hair, wear traditional robe at all time, no need to stay in temples and able to get married in-order to continue the culture lineage whereas Quan Zhen Priests will have to perform all the above requirements. So many ppl will tend to call them "Taoist Monk" (But some of the Priests requested to stay at home, also can).

    Mao Shan Priests, quite similar to Zheng Yi, but some of them do perform the requirements in-order to make oneself more "pure", etc
