The travelers climb down the china wall and enter an unpleasant environment. By the time they reach the ground, they realize that the country is wider than they had seen. As they move through another forest, they enter an opening that has hundreds of yowling wild animals. On spotting the Lion, the creatures fall silent. A tiger approaches them and tells them that a monstrous carnivorous spider is moving through the forest, looking for wild animals. The Lion, therefore, offers to kill the spider for them. Thus, they would need to bow down to him as the king of the forest. The animals happily agree to the arrangement, and the Lion leaves to go and look for the spider.  The Lion finds the monster asleep and kills it easily by beheading it using a heavy blow of his paw. His new subjects bow down to him. He promises to come back and rule them.
