Lex looked at Cornelius, unsure of how to answer that question. Was he asking literally or philosophically? After a moment, Lex gave the best answer he could think of.
"It comes from your cultivation. The better your cultivation, the more strength you have."
Actually, there were quite a few more things he could say about where strength comes from, but relying on a system or getting a unique cultivation technique were not really something that could be applied to the general public, so he refrained from mentioning them.
"I suppose you could say that," said Cornelius. "You could also be wrong."
