The pink Cherry Grove meets snow-covered mountains and lots of deep caverns in this seed. The Cherry Grove itself is divided into several sections around the snowy patches of the mountain.

Spawning on this gorgeous Stony Peaks mountain is guaranteed to take your breath away. It is one part of a range made up of several mountains, but it is the only mountain that is purely stone. The others in the range are covered in snow and ice. The entrance to a deep ravine is located only two dozen blocks from Spawn, while the center of the crater is about 200 blocks away.

Seed: 3658382095288444144

This Mushroom Island has been haphazardly placed in the center of a Frozen Ocean. With the Mooshrooms freezing, you'll need to travel to the island and come up with ways to keep them warm in this new environment! Build them small, cozy barns, line the ground with wheat and wool, and light plenty of fires to keep the temperatures up. They'll gladly reward you with warm bowls of mushroom stew for helping them out.

Entering this world drops you right in the center of a ravine. A Lush Cave lies in front of you, beckoning you to examine its every crevice for rare ores and unique blocks. Behind you, a waterfall forms to act as a natural water elevator. This ravine is on the edge of the land, surrounded on two sides by a large Warm Ocean filled with ruins and shipwrecks.

Villagers generations ago introduced the custom of having newcomers to the village retrieve the temple's treasures to join their village. However, all of the challengers have never returned to the surface after entering the temple. If you'd like to join hands with the villagers, you will have to take on this monumental task.
