Monkey tells Pig to go and play in this spring. The evil spirits flee towards the west to find shelter with their master. After Pig has driven away the She-devils he meets a bunch of their adopted sons, all of them insects who have turned into devils. Just in time, Monkey and Friar Sand come and exterminate all of the devils. Then the master and his disciples continue their journey. At dusk they come to the Yellow Flower Temple, where they lodge. The master of the temple, a Taoist monk with many eyes, is the master of the seven Spider She-devils. He uses poisoned tea, intending to murder the Tang Priest.
