After three days the master and his disciples leave the Kou residence. They pass by the Jade Chastity Temple and the Cloud-touching Crossing, before they come to the Vulture Peak. Ananda (a follower of Tathagata) asks the Tang Priest for a bribe, but does not succeed. Consequently he passes off wordless scriptures as true ones. The Tang Priest and his disciples have no occasion to examine the volumes, so they are tricked and consider the wordless scriptures to be the true ones. The master and his disciples leave the Thunder Monastery, descend from Vulture Peak and travel back towards the east.
三日後師徒們離寇宅經玉貞觀、淩雲渡到達靈山。由於阿難（如來的從者）向唐僧索賄未遂，將白紙本充作真經。唐僧師徒未能詳察，將白紙本誤當真經。師徒出雷音寺下靈山東歸。
