Wushang Sanyuan Zhenzhai Linglu (The Supreme Three Yuan Spiritual Talisman for Protecting Residences). The author is unknown, and it was presumably compiled in the late Northern and Southern Dynasties or during the transition between the Sui and Tang dynasties.
Consisting of one roll, it is included in the Dongshen Section, Divine Talisman Category of the Daozang (Taoist Canon).

Falsely attributed to being transmitted by Yuanshi Taishang Yuhuang Wuji Dadaojuang Wuji Dadaojun (Primordial Supreme Jade Emperor Infinite Great Dao Lord) as the "Wushang Sanyuan Anzhen Zhailu" (Supreme Three Yuan Talisman for Stabilizing and Protecting Residences) to the Jinming Qizhen (Seven True Ones of Jinming).
It is claimed that placing this talisman in the main hall or at the entrance of a residence will prompt the Protective Grand Generals of the Supreme Heaven to each lead their troops to guard the residence, suppress evil spirits, expel demons, and eliminate disasters. At the end of the text, there is a preface by the Jinming Qizhen, asserting that this spiritual talisman can "ensure good fortune and auspiciousness for the families of the living, and enable the deceased to ascend to paradise."
