How did the Emperor survive in Star Wars?

(SPOILERS). It's not fully explained in 'The Rise of Skywalker''.

Apparently, according to https://letswrecktheirmoviesandlaugh.com, the answer lies here:

'When Darth Vader tosses Palpatine down the Death Star shaft at the end of Return of the Jedi, a blast of blue energy indicates that something down there had broken. And up until this year, it seemed that was the last gasp of the Sith Order. In The Rise of Skywalker, Palpatine says he’s “died before,” a clear reference to his plunge in Episode VI, which ended with the Death Star II exploding into chunks that fell to the various moons of Endor. It was safe to assume his body was destroyed in the process".
