TOO MUCH LAVA!

[JoeStone]

How do I get rid of lava from the underworld? I was trying to uncover some minecart tracks and dumped a BUNCH of lava. Now I can't navigate through it.

Any suggestions?

You can try a bunch of buckets, or you can use an obsidian skin potion to get lava immunity.

A Bottomless Water Bucket (Angler fishing quest reward) might help you here. Water evaporates in the Underworld, but you can still dump it on top of lava. The lava will change to obsidian and you'll have one less tile of lava to worry about.
