How do you make obsidian on survival?

Hey there, pals. I am using an Xbox (1.14), and my lava and water just turn into cobblestones. What should I do next?

To create obsidian in Minecraft on Xbox (version 1.14), place a bucket of lava where you want the obsidian to form, and then pour a bucket of water directly onto the lava source block. Make sure the water touches the lava directly without any gaps. After a moment, the lava will cool and turn into obsidian. Use a diamond or netherite pickaxe to mine the obsidian block. If your lava and water are turning into cobblestone instead, ensure the water is directly touching the lava source block when poured. This method should help you successfully create obsidian in your survival gameplay.

This is it! worked perfectly for me! Cheers and all the best gamers.

In Minecraft, when water touches a lava source block, it turns into obsidian, which is needed to create a Nether Portal. However, if water touches flowing lava, it will turn into cobblestone. This is a standard game mechanic.

If you’re trying to make obsidian, ensure the water touches a stationary lava source block, not flowing lava. Happy gaming Ryan.
