Qiao Sang said, "You don't need to get close. You just need to predict where the lightning will strike, then use Shadow Penetration to redirect it."
"Qing Qing."
Qingbao cried out, indicating that it felt this was easy.
"Xun Xun!"
Little Treasure immediately cried out.
You obviously think it's easy! All you have to do is cast Thunder Storm normally! I'm the one doing everything else!
Qingbao opened its mouth, only to find itself unable to refute that.
"The key to this Combination Skill really does lie with Little Treasure. Lightning vanishes in an instant." Qiao Sang looked at Little Treasure and said seriously, "But I know that with your reflexes, you can definitely do it."
To successfully redirect the lightning from Thunder Storm, it had to predict where the lightning would strike, cast Shadow Penetration successfully while avoiding the opponent's attacks, and then promptly move it somewhere the target had not noticed.
If even one step went wrong, the Combination Skill would fail.
"Xun Xun..."
Even with its Beastmaster looking at it so trustingly, Little Treasure still lacked confidence. It struggled for two seconds before crying out that it would give it a try.
"Try redirecting it by using Shadow Penetration with your actual body first," Qiao Sang instructed.
The Shadow Penetration cast by Darkness Shadow covered a large enough area, but controlling Darkness Shadow required focus and consumed energy. It was easier to cast it directly with its actual body.
If its accuracy in redirecting lightning improved later, they could increase the difficulty and try having Darkness Shadow or a Substitute cast it instead.
"Xun Xun~"
Little Treasure nodded.
After saying that, it exchanged a glance with Qingbao.
"Qing Qing."
Qingbao took a deep breath, suppressed its excitement and nervousness, then cried out as it transformed into wind
