  • Introducing the Premium program BETA, giving you advanced chapters!

I guess i can buy 10 bucks worth of stones if it means unlocking hundreds of advance chapters at once...yea purchased stones aren't really worth it unless there's like a HUGE release. I mean if it's one chapter per day and cost 4 to unlock, how long are you gonna use up the 1500 stones from the 10 bucks pack?

    DoopDash you want premium novels chaps for 4 stones? Nope. It won't do. QI will make you pay 12 to 20 SS For chapter. Praise QI. It can allow you to spend your SS quick πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

      Qnumbra same with RTW. With free Spirit Stones, you barely have enough for 1 chapter per day. This whole system seems uninspiring thus far.

        DarklamaR do you even vote power stone and energy stone? If the price stay the same as last I checked (around 7-8 ss), I can still buy 2 chapters of it with just free ss alone

          simdimdim still don't understand why they didn't have something in place before hand so that we could still get chapters via ads one way or another.

          price for unlocking chapter is so high. it usually 4 ss now its 10+ ss TT
          oh well. i will just read once a month. hopefully they will give enough free chapters

            Well, I used to watch ads to get the premium chapters.

            Now I guess I just won't pay anything. Unless the ads have a 1 or 2 to 1 payout, I'm not watching more than two ads for every chapter. Basically, you went from making some money to making zero.

            That doesn't sound like a good business model to me.

            On IM not one of the premium chapters has been automatically unlocked or ad locked so far. 695 is SS locked and the premium release is up to 713 now. How is that 10 premium chapters ahead?

            The rollout was wrong. You guys should have lowered IM release rate from 21 down to 7 chapters a month in advance of Premium. Now it just looks like you took away 14 previously free chapters and slotted them before a Premium Wall. @WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL

            Also if the video for spirit stones was 2 weeks out, why not wait until that was ready before rolling "Premium" out?

              So, in a web novel if the premium release is 14 chap/week and normal is 7 chap/week. Then even if a user spends ss on chapter 2(premium chapter) he would not get a new chapter the next day (next day release will be chap 2). He would have to keep spending money to be ahead of the normal user?

              This system seems broken!

                OldManDuotian it depends on length of the chapter, some of these novels im reading are short, few hundred words per chapter, so i might get cheap premium chapter for it.

                  Sithlord yep, that's the new system, either you are a whale or a pitiful free reader

                  Just a little curious about exactly how the system works. Currently, up to chapter 693 is free for Immortal Mortal. If I purchase say 10 chapters, up to 703, what happens for the next day's release? Since I already have chapter 694, does nothing happen or does the system compensate and release chapter 704 for my account instead?

                  Edit: If it is the latter, I don't mind paying at least some money for this website. However, if it's the former, I will not be spending any money (unless maybe to unlock the end of a book when translation completes). The reason goes like this: If I purchase a bunch of chapters, then if no more free chapters are coming in, then I need to pay to maintain the "free" release speed. For instance, say I purchase 100 chapters ahead, and a chapter costs 10 stones. If I want to maintain the 100 lead (ie: maintain the free release speed), in 500 chapters, I will have spent 5000 stones, which is rough ~35$ for no gain pretty much.
