Steps:
1. Perform skillchain on a target that has blink or utusemi effect
2. Closing weapon skill (or immanence spell) gets blinked
3. ...
4. Profit! (skillchain animation plays, damage is applied, and magic bursts are allowed)
There seems to be some wonkiness on how this works. In Warrior's Path II fight, skillchain animations effects did not appear on the players, but even if every weapon skill during Tenzen's Meikyo Shisui missed, he still used Cosmic Elucidation as if he had completed darkness.
Tested under slightly more controlled settings with sch and immanence on wind elementals (they cast blink). This is repeatable, it works when the first spell is absorbed by shadow or the second.
In a probably related case, using physical weapon skills on a monster under the effect of invincible or physical shield yields skillchains. Normally, since the closing ws damage is reduced to 0, the skillchain would also inflict 0 damage. However, it now deals a small amount of damage. (~300)
