Arqade Asked on July 31, 2021
So, there I was, farming xp from my skeleton farm, getting myself set up with a set of enchanted tools, weapons, and armor, preparing for an excursion into the Nether. After ending up with a second helmet with Aqua Affinity and a bow with Flames (so useful in the Nether), faced with the prospect of punching another couple of hundred skeletons, I became weary. I still had two bows left to enchant! But I couldn’t face it. I figured, what’s the harm? I’ll just give myself a little boost out of this tedious rut.
So I fired up console commands, not entirely sure what they did. I figured why not mess around with it? There’s even a help page, this can’t be so difficult. So I found the xp command:
xp <amount> [playername]
xp <amount>L [playername]
Hmm. Let’s try this:
xp 10 mikeTheLiar
Oh. Well that only bumped me up about half a level. How about this?
xp 5000 mikeTheLiar
Sweet! 120 some odd experience levels! Let’s get enchanting! Now fully equipped, I had a good deal of illicit xp that just didn’t feel right keeping. How can I get rid of it?
xp -5000 mikeTheLiar
Hmm. “Can’t give negative experience.” Wait, wasn’t there another command? I wonder what that does?
xp 5000L mikeTheLiar
I didn’t want this. No, not like this, I didn’t want to win like this! Anyway, so now I have several thousands levels of unwanted, ill-gotten, dirty experience, and on top of that, it’s completely broken the game for me. I just didn’t want to have to spend another 20 minutes farming, not render my farm obsolete (after all, I spent a good deal of time and effort building the thing).
How can I get rid of the evidence, without turning all of my materials into tools/weapons/armor, enchanting them all, and then throwing the result into a lava pit? Is there a command to get rid of it? Is there a tool like MCEdit that will get the job done? The only thing I can think of is killing myself, but I’m deep in the bowels of Hell right now, and I’d rather not have to lose all of my sweet, newly enchanted equipment. I could just wait until I get home, but then I’m losing all of the xp that I’m honestly earning killing Blazes and Ghasts right now.
/xp -5000000L mikeTheLiar
The xp command does not work with negative experience points, but works for negative levels, according to the Minecraft Wiki.

You can just /kill yourself.
You will probably want to learn how to use the /tp console command to go home so you can drop things off first though, to avoid losing equipment. (I always found the lack of built in warping to be unsatisfying.)

Just type in /xp -xl (where x is the amount of levels you want to lose and l is a lowercase L)
Sorry for reviving a dead post, maybe this helps after 2 years?

What I did was /xp -(number of levels you want removed)L @p. I had given myself 2,000 levels for fun, didn't like it, and decided to experiment. This worked for me, so it may work for you, depending on what version your using. I didn't look at the updates. In case you're wondering what version I am currently using, I am using 1.8.9.

do /gamerule keepInventory true then kill yourself, YOU WON'T LOSE ANY STUFF but all the worthless xp is going to drain right out like water

Do /xp set 0 levels
Or to get rid of points do /xp set 0 points
