Spirit Stones are used to skip ads on adwalled chapters and are used to purchase chapters with premium walls.
There are 3 types:
Spirit Stones that expire soonest will be used up first, regardless of whether they’re a Type 1 or 2 Bonus Spirit Stone. Purchased Spirit Stones are used last.
Normal Spirit Stones that you obtain from daily check-ins expire in 1 month. If you’re an older user, you’ll probably see 2 rows of Spirit Stones expiring every day. This is because older Spirit Stones that used to have a 3-month-expiry date have changed to a 1-month-expiry date and so those Spirit Stones expire alongside Spirit Stones you gained a month ago.
Check in every day to earn Spirit Stones. You can vote at https://www.webnovel.com/vote to earn Spirit Stones, as well as spend power stones on a novel to also earn more. For app users, tap explore and then tap the yellow lightning bolt icon to view this page. You can invite friends for Spirit Stones. The higher your level, when inviting your friend, the more Spirit Stones you’ll obtain. These will give you Bonus Spirit Stones that expire in 30 days. There’s also the option of buying Spirit Stones, which will give you non-expirable Spirit Stones.
App users can tap onto their profile, click ‘Get Free Spirit Stones’ and watch ads for Spirit Stones.
Qidian International may also host events, so you can participate in them and earn Spirit Stones. If you have moderator or admin position in the Facebook or Discord groups, you'll also receive a corresponding number of Spirit Stones per month.
When on the main website, if you hover over your profile picture in the top right of the screen, you should get the black drop-down menu where you can check in, go to settings etc. as well as invite friends. Click on that button and it should take you to a page where it'll give you your 'special code'.
Share this with your friend and they'll be able to join. Keep in mind that friends can only join using a social account (Twitter, Google+, Facebook) not by using email.
A phone user can tap ‘Get Free Spirit Stones’ on their profile and then tap ‘Invite friend’. You can then follow the same instructions.
Not to worry! If you have an Android or iOS device, you can install the ‘Webnovel’ app on your phone. You can add money to your Google Play account or Apple account and pay for Spirit Stones via Google Play or Apple’s in-app-purchases!

The tech team will handle and resolve any issues within one to three working days (GMT +8).
You get 5 Spirit Stones for your first Energy Stone used. After that, it doesn't matter how many Energy Stones you use that day, you won't get anymore Spirit Stones after that. The same can be said of Power Stones. You get 5 Spirit Stones for the first one used, however, after that, you won't get anymore Spirit Stones from it for the rest of the day.
Simply put, you get 5 Spirit Stones from Power Stones per day and 5 Spirit Stones from Energy Stones per day. The max total is 10 Spirit Stones per day from using Power and Energy stones.
You have 30 days to claim your Spirit Stones, and because Spirit Stones that have been sent via your inbox are usually ones with a 30-day-expiry date, you would then have a further 30 days to use them.
