This mod is pretty straight forward. It adds an XP Block which allows for near infinite storage of experience which any players can access. In the Creative Menu, it can be found under the "Miscellaneous​" tab.
To view how many XP is stored in the block, just look at it and a nametag-like text will pop up above the block showing an approximation of how many levels are stored and the exact value of XP stored in brackets (toggleable).
The block also has Waila and TheOneProbe support. Both mod's tooltips show the same level approximation and when sneaking also the exact amount of XP stored.
The block will retain the stored XP when it's broken. The item in the inventory will show the amount of stored XP in its tooltip, too.
The block can pickup XP orbs in a 3 block radius around it. This can be turned off by providing a redstone signal to the XP Block.
To craft the block, surround an Emerald with 8 Iron Bars as seen here:
Usage:
- Sneak + rightclick to add all your current experience to the block
- Rightclick to remove one level from the block and add it to your experience bar
- Offhand must be empty
Configurability:
There are six configuration options which also don't need a restart. You can:
1. Configure the speed at which the emerald within the XP Block is spinning
2. Configure the speed at which the emerald is bobbing up and down
3. Toggle the nameplate above the XP Block that shows the contents
4. Set the amount of XP needed for a comparator to output one redstone signal strength
5. Disable picking up XP orbs around the XP Block
6. Change the radius in which the XP Block will pickup XP orbs
7. Control whether to store only one level at a time or all levels at once
8. Control whether to retrieve only one level at a time or all levels at once
9. Control the percentage of XP that the block gives back to the player, perhaps as some sort of payment for using it
The values you insert for 1. and 2. are multiples of the default speed. If you would set both to 2.0 the emerald would be animated twice as fast as with the default values.
Config options 1-3 are client sided, 4-6 are server sided (latter can be found in the serverconfig folder in your world).

Could you make an updated version for 1.12.2? (since the latest version made for 1.12.2 has some bugs). I think many other people would like to see an updated version for 1.12.2 (if they start looking for a xp storage mod) since its a version that is used a lot in modpacks
In reply to cheetdood:
Sorry, I don't update my mods for 1.12.2 anymore. And even if I were, I'd need to know which bugs you mean. You can take a look at XP Tome, another xp storage mod I made, it is very configurable but adds an item to store xp in, not a block. https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/xp-tome/files/3168395
In reply to bl4ckscor3:
The bug I experienced a while ago is that after storing xp once you try to get the xp from the block you do get the xp you have stored before but if you try again you keep getting more xp from it (pretty much cheesing the system). Basically you store a specific amount of xp but once you want to get xp from the block the amount you can retrieve is infinite. I knew about XP tome but I have an issue with it; Im playing on a modded multiplayer server and I want the limit of xp to be bigger. If I wanted to change the limit of xp of one book what file or files would I need to edit? (.cfg might not be the one I want to edit since I think thats just client side although im not really sure). The bug I mentioned about Global Xp isnt that much of an issue though
In reply to cheetdood:
For XP Tome you do want to edit the mod's cfg file in the config folder of the server. In Forge for Minecraft 1.12.2, there is no distinction between client side and server side config files by default.
In reply to bl4ckscor3:
I would only need to edit the .cfg file of the server's folder right? Or do I have to edit the one in my .minecraft folder aswell?
In reply to cheetdood:
You only need to edit the server's .cfg file.
In reply to bl4ckscor3:
alright thanks
In reply to cheetdood:
use openblocks thats has a xp drain and xp shower not in 1.16.5 yet
I love this mod, but... can u port to fabric please?
In reply to Luzyen:
No, sorry. Apart from the two mods I already have, I don't develop for fabric.
In reply to bl4ckscor3:
well thanks anyway
Would like to be able to export it into a glass bottle.
How do you move it
In reply to Trivvette:
Break the XP Block and then place it again. The levels will be saved.
In reply to bl4ckscor3:
lol thank you
sounds like the xp mod im looking for simple and straight forward.
could u port it to fabric?
In reply to wackoamd:
No, I will not develop any mods for Fabric apart from those that I already have.
I would really love to use this, but in the state it is in right now it's a bit too cheaty for me, I would love if there was an option for the block to return only a configurable percentage of the XP taken
So that you for example can set the return percent in the config to 80, so when you have 100 XP and want to put it all in you "pay" 20 XP to do so, meaning the block will only have 80 XP
In reply to xKuraion:
v1.9 adds a server config option to control this!
In reply to bl4ckscor3:
Thank you so much! Now this mod is literally exactly what I've been looking for since over a year :)
