Happening for me as well.

Happened to me on a server that started in 21w43a and updated to 1.18 prerelease 1. I also tried opening the world in single player and got the same problem at the same location.  Notably a village generates at that location, and the crash occurs immediately as the village generates (I checked by going to the same coordinates in a earlier version, and I can also see a very small part of a couple village houses right on the edge of the area that causes the crash)

Ditto, 21w43a - > 1.18 pre 1.

Also happened to me. Seems like no matter what direction I go it will crash when loading new chunks. When re-creating the world, I can go to those same places without any issue. There are two villages somewhat nearby my base which I had not loaded/uncovered yet. Looks like it's crashing whenever I get too close. So I suppose those villages are the culprit?

If I move about 10 blocks further from that point it tries to load a village and always crashes in my original world.

I hope this is getting resolved soon!

More crash report:

where do i see the resolution of this problem? as i have the same one.

It says Fix Version/s:Future Version - 1.18+ so i guess we will have to wait for an update to get this resolved....

@Hadi - I had success in opening the world in MCASelector and deleting the chunks that surrounded the region failing to generate, always was a village in my experience. After that, the world loaded fine once I TP'd myself away from those coords. I've yet to test if regenerating those chunks by heading back to the area causes the crash again or not.

https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/article/minecraft-1-18-pre-release-2 includes the fix to this bug,.
