EASY EXPLORATION WITH PORTALS! | The Minecraft Guide – Tutorial Lets Play (Ep. 80)

Elites welcome back we gather here today to witness something very ceremonious very special this is the start of a great kingdom right here over here we have distant cousin and then over here we have velma velma 2.0 b version this is the full name for that one right here this is something special

Lilac right there your favorite flower and lilac right here your second favorite flower and now they do the magical dance and look at it it’s a brand new child right there we’ll give you some food too it’s a special moment and it’s the start of b repopulation a gigantic operation that will eventually

Result in like uh let’s see we have like 24 beehives in here 24 times three yep work it out times three again that many bees inside of this building and i mean hey while we’re at it we’ll shoot our shot arthur here you go velma there you go

Let’s see maybe something new hopefully something new okay that’s something new it’s at least not the rolly panda nice so we’re back over at the old mines first who remembers this it feels like we built this thing like like a million years ago which i honestly at this point we kind of did

It’s been like a long time i haven’t been under here in a minute we’re heading down over here for obsidian today is the day people mission mesa is getting finished for once and for all i seriously can’t explain how badly i need and want a mesa pile the terracotta the

Terracotta would be so amazing in so many different types of builds but we still haven’t found the mesa but today today that all changes entirely it’s going to change for once and for all and forever so almost exactly obsidian that’s pretty good we should have more than enough now

I have to be honest i kind of feel bad about doing a bunch of exploration episodes lately because i feel like you guys like want to go see me do something like go build a farm or or even just build a building or or trade with the villagers or something

And i’m sorry okay i’m sorry i i know i feel bad too but i need the mesa bomb i seriously need i need this so bad i i like i said i can’t even explain how bad i need it at this point no yeah i see a bunch of comments all the time

Telling me hey waddles you know you could just smelt the the clay up and you get you get the terracotta yeah yeah i know i know i know but it’s not efficient you see if we could find a mesa biome and then set up a beacon over in the amazon bottom and

This beacon doesn’t even really have to be much of a beacon we could actually mine terracotta like instantaneously and efficiently which are two things that combine into one really really really nice thing now exploration today today we’re going to explore with portals because it’s a little bit faster

Now honestly i don’t know if this is going to necessarily work i’m really hoping it works so we’re going to head back out to the ice biome today we don’t have any maps i’m not worried about maps at all until i find a mesa biome if i find a

Mesa biome i may reconsider that opinion but until then it’s no maps i figured we would start over here by the ice spikes bottom because this is a pretty long ways from home and we haven’t really explored out here very much the area that we’ve explored has been back

Basically where i just ran through and cut through now if i were to go through this portal right now like i’m going to do we would be uh huh uh-huh in the ice bikes now we explored like a lot over that way not as much over that way though i’m thinking though

If we go back into the portal and maybe go like 100 blocks that way first and throw a portal down maybe we’ll get lucky maybe so another portal exploration let’s talk about it a little bit because we haven’t done it at all in this world koi yet nether portal exploration

Is actually pretty simple if you’re up at the top of the nether in fact you could actually be even higher up in another like right now we’re at the top of the nether you could even do this like on top of the nether like you know like above the bedrock and

Just run around and make portals that actually honestly might be a better way to do things so one block in the nether is equal to eight blocks in the overworld that’s honestly kind of absurd that’s what we’ve been using to travel to farther places you know with like those ice highways

And portals all of that type of stuff yeah that’s great well we can actually use that same exact mechanic for exploring long distances in our world and that’s exactly what we’re going to do today so i’ve gone about 100 blocks out from the original portal by the ice spikes biome

All we’re going to do is create another portal and we’re not even going to worry about this another portal because i don’t know if it’s going to stay so we’re just going to throw another portal in just like this i’ll take that back though thank you very much

Then we’re going to light it and go through and hopefully we’re somewhere interesting if we’re somewhere interesting like like the mesa biome then we’re gonna keep it if we’re down in a cave system well then we’re gonna have to make our way back up to the surface to see what

Is actually over here now just in case i don’t know if we’re gonna have like an ocean over here or something so we’ll dig down so the water doesn’t spill everywhere and now all we need to do is just get right back up to the surface and see where we’re at

But i guess you know technically speaking i wouldn’t even have to go to the surface i could press f3 and check the biome yeah minecraft ocean okay good to know but i still would like to go up to the surface and see what’s here because you never know maybe like you’re

In an ocean and you’re like near the base of the bottom that you really just okay i’m gonna stop alrighty we’ve hit the surface of the ocean you know what let’s actually dig this out and get rid of that thank you uh what do we have let’s actually make a tower here too

So i don’t lose that hole that would be really bad what are we near anything cool okay technically yes oh this is where i couldn’t find the foxes before all right garbage so when something unfortunate like that happens this is really painful guys this is really painful to get down

This is bad well something i’m painful and unfortunate and tragic like that happens what do you do you go back down a clog this up because we don’t want water down here we’re going to take the corners off of the portal after i look around really quick and just see what’s down here

We’re down at diamond level so i mean you never know right uh but it doesn’t look like it i’ll take the iron in the lapis though why not redstone two okay your cool uh diamonds how about that no a little bit more lapis okay okay redstone uh lava okay i don’t see any

Diamonds we’re wasting our time so when a portal generates like when you make one in the nether and then you pop it into the overworld even if you don’t put corners on the portal on the nether corners will be on the portal when you go to the oval world now we’re gonna

Need this portal intact to get back into the nether of course but technically speaking here we can make a little bit of profit off of those corners which absolutely sure because after a couple portals i’ll have enough obsidian from the original portals to just make a new portal it’s an idea that’s

Absolutely glowing to me i love it but this portal no luck there if you try this and you have something that’s insanely boring uninteresting like that one then go back into the nether take the portal down and try again now technically that portal is going to be

Left in the oval world but it’s really not that big of a deal we’re never going to go there so uh we are currently at 256 let’s try this again we’ll go maybe about 100 blocks and then we’ll we’ll make another portal now how far should you go well really

It’s not an exact science i recommend going like a hundred blocks minimum though because otherwise what’s the point to just travel the distance in the oval world so 100 blocks or so that’s really what i recommend doing i feel like with 100 blocks you cover a lot of space i mean

Remember 100 blocks on the nether that’s going to multiply out to 800 blocks in the overworld that’s definitely a lot of distances so let’s jump through here hopefully hopefully hopefully something’s good if there’s nothing good we’re turning around and going the other way okay okay okay we’re not in the cave that makes

Things a whole lot easier it’s the middle of the night uh what do we have okay zombies okay fine fine fine we’ll roll to the date really quick all righty here let’s just go ahead and get up here away from the mobs that’s gonna make my life easier oh that’s cool

That’s a really cool looking horse and a baby horse too oh that’s amazing but uh other than that it looks like we’re maybe like on an island would no no maybe not maybe not uh yeah it’s a plane’s biome which is cool it would be nice if there were

Sunflowers over here still don’t have any of those but doesn’t really look like anything interesting is actually over here so unfortunately that’s gonna be a no-go however i need to look i i need to just give it a shot i have the elytra i could glide down over here

And see if this turns into a sunflower’s plane smile please sunflowers i i can’t believe we haven’t found any sunflowers quite yet i mean it’s sunflowers and a certain specific biome that i really really could use that that i haven’t found in this world quite yet yeah honestly it’s very shocking

Oh this is interesting if i keep going this way it’s a desert over there which is kind of cool uh interesting nice but no sunflowers so back to the portal for me but before we go there we’ll leave a tribute out here in the wild all right so that’s gonna

Have to be a little bit of a bummer but like i said if there was nothing interesting this way we’d actually backtrack and go the other way and try making portals kind of like past the ice spikes biome where i actually haven’t explored quite yet maybe we’ll get lucky over there oh no

Another horse another horse no no no go back to the overworld there you go with your family with your friends don’t come into the nether again you don’t want to live here because it’s going to be very lonely and isolated all right so i got the corners off of that portal

Took it down now it’s time to head back the way we came cross past the ice spikes portal and make a portal over there let’s go maybe like a hundred blocks past the ice bikes portal or uh because i do have a hallway well no i already know where that goes yeah 100

Blocks past this portal all right so this portal is going to be at 350 about let’s go ahead and go all the way to 450 have a little bit of a hallway here this hallway goes to where the other foxes are which we’ll definitely be using again but

Let’s just go ahead and branch off of it right here yeah the nice thing about netherride and in diamond and enchantments and everything is this gets insanely easy already at 450 come on all right time for portal number three i can’t place obsidian for the life of me okay

Let’s see where are we now we look to be on in in the ocean next to the tundra so yeah we probably just didn’t go far enough because i feel like this is probably space that i’ve kind of already seen so you know how it is corners you’re coming

With me now honestly if you wanted to get like really clever here and profit i’ll like a lot off of this you could write down where these portals are in the overworld like somewhere like take a screenshot write it down something like that and then when you’re done fly around

From portal to port of the portal in the oval world to clean everything up and take every single portal down you definitely could do that you’d have to be kind of desperate for like obsidian like at that point like eight obsidian is it worth it i

Added 10 probably not but you could in theory you could and this is basically like an obsidian generator sort of all right though so yeah 100 blocks definitely wasn’t enough let’s go ahead and go 100 more blocks so this time we’re gonna go all the way to 550

Straight down this way straight down that way all right let’s go 550 550 is our portal right here this is the move this is the final portal that we’re going to have to make of the entire episode we’ll be done in no time right here it’s going to be perfect

Exactly what i’ve always wished for dreamed for hope for wanted expected needed everything good like that this is the portal okay we’re in the ocean we’re in the ocean this is most likely not the portal we have a little bit of extra obsidian if i wanted to this time yeah this is

Most likely not the portal i i think i was just fed incorrect and for snow silk really snow still how big is this tundra biome it’s a beautiful ocean though i have to say i think this is lukewarm ocean yeah luke 4 motion it’s a beautiful

Color it’s very nice it’s just not the clay oh that’s cool it’s just not the clay color that i’m looking for yeah okay and this time because it’s such a weird portal i don’t think i’m even gonna bother with the corners all right so the 100 block method it’s not working

And somehow we’re still in the tundra this is what i’m thinking we’ll use this spot right here as sort of like a central hub and now maybe we’ll go 200 blocks out in every direction and try that maybe 200 blocks we’ll get us somewhere i’m getting really desperate at this point so yeah

200 blocks from this central hub so uh let’s see here let’s go 200 blocks down this way first which is going to take us all the way to actually that kind of works out like perfectly that’s going to take us all the way like positive 100 about

All right here we are the gold marks the way i’ve been nothing but nice to gold this entire series and marks the way it wouldn’t betray me ever 200 blocks is a lot more space let’s see okay we’re in a cave that is in a lukewarm ocean a deep lukewarm ocean that is

Beautiful that’s exactly what i was hoping for and i saw that it was turning to nighttime so let’s go ahead and sleep really quick i love the deep lukewarm ocean i like i i love it best friend well at least i didn’t have to dig as much this time

That is kind of nice same deal though we’ll make this pillar right here so i don’t lose the whole let’s see what do we have anything cool up here hopefully there’s something cool oh wow this is like really deep actually anything cool uh savannah okay that’s interesting

Um but other than that it doesn’t really look like it i probably should have brought like rockets or something rockets would have been like genius actually okay we’re back where we started so i just ran all the way back to the base i got rockets i can’t believe it i

Forgot rock it’s been so long since i’ve done this since i’ve had to do this you want to have rockets always want to have rockets also i forgot to take the portal down down there but it’s 200 blocks away so i don’t want to worry about it and

I’m not going to worry about i’m just going to leave it there now we have to take the 750 but rockets rockets rockets always remember rockets when you’re doing this the odds of you landing in the exact biome that you’re looking for when doing this like you build the portal go into

The overworld and boom you’re in the biome yeah that’s probably not going to happen that’s very very unlikely if you have an electric and you’re doing this 100 000 bring rockets so you can soar around and look around the general area you could bring some rockets and fly around like maybe like 200

Blocks around the portal in every direction if you do things that way you’ll get a better idea as to what’s around that portal and if that portal is worth it or not let’s see though what are we at now we’re in another cold biome okay very nice

And it’s nighttime okay fine we’ll sleep first then we’ll fly around just a little bit so yeah the thing with this method is it’s really just all guesswork good luck like basically a shot in the dark an igloo that’s cool but yeah there’s no guarantee here we’re

Really just hoping that we end up getting lucky and seeing something somewhat interesting hey a village over there too okay fine fine i’ll make a quick stop i’m fine it’s not exploration episodes we’re not worried about cats okay we’re just we’re just here for the bell the bell

And and nothing else okay the bell thank you very much maybe i’ll come back to this place one day maybe not this snowy biome the the snowy biomes i guess they seem to be absolutely massive in this world like this is crazy like we’ve gone like

A really long ways now at this point i mean we’re all the way that way out at like 6 000 and we’re still in these snowy biomes that is like absurd all right but that’s gonna be that back into the nether take this portal down back to the center and then 200 blocks

The other direction so really at this point if i have to make a like a nice highway out to the maze bomb which i probably will do once we find it but at this point it’s going to be like a really really long hallway like

It might be to the point of like maybe if we can find the mesa and then get like really lucky and find a cave system in that same biome we can find like a skeleton farm so then there’s like you know like at least a little bit more of a reason to actually

Come out here oh oh okay okay i’ll take that i’ll take that yeah that’s great that’s great as a small consolation oh this is gonna be annoying uh as a small consolation prize i will accept ancient debris that that’s that’s a good payment okay so we have only gone like 50 blocks so

It’s definitely not time to just just shoot our shot and make a portal i think what we want to do instead is maybe just staircase up past that whole gap stuff hopefully okay yep we’re gonna hit the ceiling that’s fine that’s okay hopefully we can like get through here

Without having to make too much of a bridge because making a bunch of bridges is a huge waste of time so hopefully this is like just a small spot where i have to i really hope this is honestly kind of crazy this might be like the fall this drop the

Farthest drop possible like we’re all the way up here at bedrock yeah and then that drop that wouldn’t be good all right this should be about 200 blocks right here yeah yeah yeah perfect okay now time for a portal right here at literally the very top of the nether

And then hopefully this is the one kind of like how you can dig through netherrack with your hand it is kind of cool but here we go portal all right and now here it is here it is the mesa biome come on please come on good friend good friend good friend good

Friend good friend no that’s a ravine that’s insanely dangerous where are we snowy beach really snowy beach okay okay this is wonderful it’s snowy i love it well here we are we’ve made it we finally made it all the way up to the surface at the snowy beach exactly

Where we need to be okay yeah this looks like this isn’t exactly the spot i think we’re gonna have to go back into the portal and try it again oh and now that i’ve left my portal like you know isolated down in the cave system it’s

Not like there are a bunch of mobs so you know what i’m not worried about the corners this time we’re just gonna go right on through hopefully nothing’s in here okay we’re clear all right time to try again so here’s what i’m thinking this time

Which you want our blocks out again i i branched out and everything like that we’ve already explored every single other option from that other hub then you know the hub that we were just at a second ago this time i think maybe we’ll do the same thing

But maybe 300 blocks from from this hub and what we’re going to do is skip this direction right there because that’s the direction that goes back like generally towards home so basically uh out this direction and that direction 300 blocks now so 300 blocks is going to be all the way to

X850 in the nether check it out we’re not quite at 850 we’re like almost there 8 27 that’s probably fine it’s like pretty close this should give us a pretty decent idea as to what’s over here hopefully no more snow i’m kind of done with the snow now at this point it was

Cool like last episode it’s not cool anymore you know what would be cool though do i even have to say that um yeah yeah that that’s really cool i i like that a lot no no no no no it’s done it’s over it’s over i don’t have to do this

Anymore no no no no no no this isn’t no this isn’t this isn’t real no no no this is i it’s a dude okay yeah um yeah it’s over it’s actually it it’s actually over no way you don’t understand how big of a moment this is right here

Right here is six six zero three that’s a beautiful number that’s a good number that’s a solid number negative 24 13. that’s another nice number that’s a good number okay that’s that’s a really strong number there’s a good set of okay yeah this is amazing this is a this

That’s a mesa biome that’s a badlands biome that’s whatever you want to call it you only call it the mesobiome oh this is amazing look at this oh and it’s next to a frozen ocean too okay that’s kind of cool we could double up and have this be like

Where we get ice from and terracotta from that’s pretty cool but then again this the hills aren’t very good wow this is amazing we’ve done it portal exploration is the way to go uh when you’re trying to find the mesa biome oh and this place looks gigantic there is so much terracotta here

So much more terracotta that i could ever ask for this is so cool okay so it actually i think what we want to do well what do we want to do do we want to leave the portal where it is we which is right there next to a solid harvesting spot

For for terra cotta or do we want to try and and maybe see if we can get the portal closer to where we live because you see we live at like 900 1670 like like 900 1700 and this is really far so a part of me says at this point it

Doesn’t even matter but the other part of me says how far does it go this way like look at this we could cut off a couple hundred blocks if we were to put our portal like in the nether over here but then again it’s like a couple

Hundred okay yeah it’s probably not even worth it at this point probably not all that matters is that we found a mesa biome this is groundbreaking this is amazing this is something that i have been lacking for 80 episodes 8-0 count them you don’t even need you 80. you know how it works

Wow wow wow yeah that’s it that’s it i think we’re done for today that’s all we needed to do and and we’ve accomplished it a million times over we’ve accomplished it this is perfect and honestly i think i might leave the nether portal whoa okay gotta be careful i i might

Leave the nether portal up here maybe this this is an okay spot for it at least for now it would be ideal to put it over there but for now i don’t even care i can’t even complain we have a mesa biome we have a mesa biome we have the badlands

Mesa okay so look here’s the thing no matter what we do this is going to be a long way and i’m thinking about it now i could like totally expand these hallways for sure that would work or i could put the portal on top of the nether leg look we

Go back to the gold farm rebuild the portal on top of this spot right here so if i just write these coordinates down then whenever i need to go to the mesa i literally just go above the nether and fly over to it and i could build like a giant marker or something

Yeah that seems like a smarter idea to me than leaving this here so what i’m going to do is i’m going to actually take this whole portal down for today and then when we go to the mesa next episode or next time we just fly right over here easy and

Rebuild it on top of the nether it’ll work just the same perfect now also that advancement is going to be for going 7 000 blocks in the overworld i i’m pretty sure that if we go through the portal like we’re way back at the jungle that should be more than 7 000 blocks

And we should get an advancement too all for finding this beautiful biome okay i’ll take it i’ll take it and ancient debris too yeah you definitely can’t forget it deal is sold the sweet nether hub and other fox have missed you so much but advancement are we gonna get it i think

We will we we should that was a really long distance right oh yes so that’s right that’s the advancement right there subspace bubble use the nether to travel seven kilometers in the overworld i think it would be pretty cool to eventually maybe try and check out like all of these advancements

And get as many of them as possible maybe even like all of them that could be pretty cool where’s the subspace bubble one though is that like in here yeah probably adventure right that’s no okay yeah maybe it’s another where where is it well this is awkward i can’t find it

I can’t find it anywhere in any here anywhere not in another not in the overworld i can’t find it but that’s okay it’s time for the comment of the day episode number 80. i must ask waddles why the shields hate also automatic wolf farm when so up front i can only answer one

Of those questions automatic wool farm when i i don’t know honestly i i keep putting it off and i keep coming up with other projects that i want to do i do want to make an automatic wolf farm soon the original plan was to actually like put it right in here along the

Water but now i built this building and i’m thinking about maybe more villager buildings in here instead and then the automatic wolf farm somewhere else so at some point i definitely do want to build one in this world i just don’t really know when it was high of my priorities

But then it kind of just kept moving down and it’s really not a gigantic priority right now so let’s send the episode off with the expansion of the b kingdom i feel like it should probably be time for the adult bees to have more baby bees maybe all we need

To do is wait for the other bee to come out i think it lives somewhere over there this is one of them yes hi how you doing it all goes full circle here you go here you go munch munch munch munch baby b thank you all so much for

Watching today’s episode big shout out to my patrons groundcrazymay and archangel thank you so much for the support and i i will see you all in the next episode of the minecraft guide correction i’ll see you all in the next video tomorrow smash like subscribe goodbye You
