The nether:
In order to get to the nether, you’ll need obsidian and a flint and tinder.
to make obsidian, you’ll need to mix still lava with still water.
From there you’ll need mine it with a diamond pick axe. (it does
take a while). From there arrange the obsidian in a 5 x 4
rectangle and then light it with the flint and tinder. Your end
result should look like this …
step into the purple and watch the screen … soon you’ll be greeted with a beautiful sight like this …
Most people go the nether to get glowstone, netherack and unlimited supply of lava!
Glowstone, like the name suggests, is a stone that glows. It looks nice if your into interior decorating.
Netherack is a block that if lit on fire, will not burn out. It looks nice as a fire place or if your making
some sort of demonic temple! Lava will also help with this!
