Supreme Exorcist

Sent into the modern world by his Daoist sect to deal with hauntings, Li Wei is a young exorcist with a deceptively simple mission. Sounds straightforward enough: clear out some ghosts, call it a day. But after he handles a couple of haunted houses, things spiral. Turns out, exorcising spirits in a world where ancient mysticism still quietly runs alongside smartphones and skyscrapers puts a target on your back. Thai sorcerers, Japanese Onmyoji, Korean witches, Western exorcists, they all come knocking, and Li Wei has to put each of them in their place. The fun here is watching a Daoist practitioner square off against completely different magical traditions, each with their own tricks and philosophies. It's not just "punch harder" escalation; the matchups actually feel distinct. The tone leans action-packed but keeps things loose with humor threaded through the supernatural showdowns. The urban fantasy setting from studio Qingkong Qian Li gives it a grounded backdrop that makes the mystical clashes hit differently than your typical cultivation story. If you liked the power fantasy escalation of Against the Gods or the martial world-building in Shi Fang Jian Sheng, this scratches a similar itch but swaps ancient sects for a modern cityscape. Fans of Dance of the Sky Empire's blend of action and adventure will find familiar ground too. It's based on a web novel, delivered as an ONA, and worth checking out if you're into Daoist exorcism lore mixed with international magical throwdowns.
