The Outer Demon tribulation of Bao Yun is actually an indescribable demon from beyond the domain contending with Bao Yun for control over the entire Heart Image World. This is also the price Bao Yun pays for cultivating the Heavenly Demon Miao Xiang; from now on, demonic tribulations will replace heavenly tribulations as the primary obstacle on her Path.
When the power of the Outer Demon is in ascendancy, Bao Yun will gradually lose control over the Heart Image World. As her control declines, things will start to shatter. Those shattered things, whether branches or stones, will transform into Demonic Qi, becoming part of the Outer Demon.
If Bao Yun fails to overcome the tribulation, her Heart Image World will become the body of the Outer Demon. The Outer Demon can then use this foothold to enter This World, unleashing a bloodbath.
