Xu Yuan's deduction could be considered well-reasoned and supported by evidence.
Actually, a very long time ago, Xu Yuan had already been very curious and puzzled about the phenomenon that the void could create consciousness entities.
You should know, creating consciousness entities, to some extent, is equal to creating life!
Creating life out of nothing is clearly a level that carbon-based life forms simply cannot reach.
If the void really had the ability to create life, then why would they still remain trapped in the void?
Although Xu Yuan had many questions in his heart at that time, because his understanding of this world was still very limited, the clues he could obtain were also very few.
And at that time Xu Yuan didn't even know that the beings in the void were Notch's friends, nor did he know that the power they used came from Notch.
Also during that same period, many events kept happening in this world where data-generated entities began to develop self-awareness.
Because of this, the world at that time looked extremely mysterious in Xu Yuan's eyes, so he naturally accepted the idea that the void could create life.
After all, if this world could already produce conscious living beings, then it wouldn't be strange for the mysterious void to have the ability to create life, right?
However, as time passed, Xu Yuan gradually grasped more and more clues. When everything slowly became clearer, he once again turned his attention back to this issue that had deeply puzzled him before.
Even then, there were still many things he couldn't figure out.
The most confusing point for him was that, although they all came from that previous world, the physical bodies of people like the Ender Queen were somehow preserved intact, yet the Dread Lord's body disappeared completely and ended up being controlled by the void.
This question that had troubled Xu Yuan for so long was finally completely solved just now when the real HIM described how the previous world gradually collapsed.
Obviously, the Dread Lord became the strongest evidence supporting Xu Yuan's claim that the beings who fell into the void from that previous world were still alive.
———
After that great war, the real HIM said they experienced a short period of peace. That time should have been when Notch forcibly disconnected from that world and was recovering.
Afterward he slowly recovered, and under Brother Jiang's supervision, began repairing this world.
At that time, when Notch logged back into the world he had created, he was full of expectation, wanting to check the results of his long effort.
However, the scene before him left him completely stunned. Aside from the vast, endless void stretching as far as the eye could see, there was nothing else.
Notch stared in disbelief. He had worked so hard for so long, nearly risking his life, and all he had built was just this void.
The only proof that he hadn't wasted his time was that every grid area of the void contained code he personally wrote.
At that time Notch did not know that this void was actually the original world.
In fact, this situation happened because Brother Jiang forcibly cut off Notch's connection to that world.
Because of this sudden disconnection, Notch lost all memory of that world, which triggered a hidden protective mechanism within that world.
Because of this protection mechanism, once Notch completely forgot everything about that world, he could no longer see its true appearance.
So what appeared before him was only this seemingly empty void.
If he had acted impulsively and rashly decided to delete all that massive, dense data, the consequences would have been unimaginable. All the living beings in that world would probably have completely disappeared.
Fortunately, Notch was rather afraid of death (not really).
Fortunately, fate seemed to favor those innocent beings.
At that time, Notch made a very crucial choice.
He sharply sensed that it was that mysterious void interfering with and influencing his judgment.
Filled with fear, he worried he might again be affected by it, so he resolutely set out on a path of self-training, trying to gradually separate his conscious mind from his subconscious.
Clearly he succeeded. Soon he could freely switch between his conscious mind and subconscious.
But what he didn't know was that his subconscious still retained all the memories.
So when Notch's conscious mind began deleting the data originating from the void, his deeply hidden subconscious was tirelessly saving those endangered beings.
Although the fragile physical bodies of those beings still inevitably moved toward the tragic fate of dispersing and disappearing.
What was comforting was that Notch's extremely powerful and unfathomable subconscious acted like an unbreakable barrier, successfully protecting their precious souls.
Because of this key factor, later D and J gained the extraordinary ability to gather those souls that were originally scattered everywhere and transform them through some mysterious power into different levels of consciousness entities.
After all, D and J inherited part of Notch's abilities after that great war, and only Notch possessed the ability to control those souls.
As for why those souls had no memory of what they experienced before, it was very likely also caused by Notch's subconscious.
Even though Notch's subconscious carried the grand intention of saving all living beings, at that time his first concern must have been ensuring his own safety and stability.
After all, he simply could not bear those heavy memories then, so his subconscious had to take this extreme measure and completely erase the memories of those beings.
However, it can be imagined that if one day Notch manages to recover that lost key fragment of memory.
Then without doubt, the souls of those beings who once lost their memories will also regain their long-lost memories.
They will remember who they are, remember everything they experienced, and at the same time remember the real HIM.
In that case, the real HIM will not be forgotten and will not disappear.
At that time, the previous world and the current world will fully merge, and that will be the true happy ending.
