Earth Grade | Arch Paragon Physique
1) Arch Paragon IQ: Above mortal intelligence from birth.
2) Arch Paragon Heart: A regular Paragon Devil is already blessed with the unique [Devil Heart], a miraculous fusion of the standard Mana Core, Demon Nucleus and Devil race genealogy. As an Arch Paragon, your Devil Heart is even greater.
3) Arch Paragon Presence: Everyone facing you will feel like you were an existence that came from above. Devils will especially revere you and enemies will instinctively fear you, causing them to be unable to fight against you with their full power if they lack will power.
4) Arch Paragon Influence: You inherit the influence of your Demon King parent and can now influence the personalities of your followers. If you are good natured, your followers will also become good natured. It works the opposite way as well. But where your parent's influence is restricted to those of the Monster Species, you can influence not only Monsters but Blood Fiends and Devils as well.
5) Arch Paragon Horns: You inherit the Demon King Horns of your Demon King parent. They are not as flexible, but they have specialised effects unique to your race.
They also have a unique charm to anyone with Blood Affinity and are great Mana conduits.
6) Arch Paragon Overdrive: You can tap into your Blood Essence for greater strength. However, this can cause permanent losses in Blood Essence if you overuse it.
7) Law Understanding: You have greater understanding towards Blood and Lightning Laws.

Sinbad already knew that he was a Soulchild and that his parents were Soulmates. He was a 'perfect' devil that didn't have the weaknesses of a normal devil but had all the talents from his parents.
Speaking of weaknesses, the reason why he wasn't as ruthless and cruel as a traditional devil was because he didn't inherit the corruption that came with killing essence and resentment. On one side, a devil has a Blood Fiend parent that usually drinks blood to cultivate, which comes with mental side effects that can be inherited. On the other side, they have a Monster parent that absorbs Killing Essence, which also comes with dark mental side effects if not purified.
Devils had no room to be anything but deranged with parents like that, and that was even without taking their 'defective hybrid' status into the equation.
Luckily, a Paragon Devil would not inherit this mess. But if being a Soulchild of a Blood Fiend and a Monster was what qualified you to be a Paragon Devil, what would happen if the Monster parent was a True Demon King? Could such a Paragon be put on the same wavelength as the others?
No.
A True Demon King was an entity that was literally born to rule their species. Sinbad inherited this nature and became something that was a step above regular Paragon Devils. Officially his race was still just 'Paragon Devil', but if you were to look at his physique, it would be more accurate to call him an 'Arch Paragon Devil'.
Just 1 of his advantages was that whilst a Paragon Devil could actually develop mental issues down the line if they weren't careful with their cultivation, he would never have those issues because he had a superior Devil Heart.
The only thing that was slightly unfortunate was that his physique wasn't a mutated one like his father's. A mutated physique could evolve (maybe even indefinitely) if it met the necessary requirements, and every True Demon King had this powerful physique.
If it weren't for the stringent requirements for the physique to evolve, it would have been very unfair and that was coming from him. As it stands, a resource that could help a Divine Demon Physique evolve did not exist yet, at least in Eridius. That meant that for now, every Divine Demon would be stuck at Earth Grade.
Sinbad couldn't complain though even if he didn't obtain this advantage, what he had already inherited was too much.
Devils raised the strength of their bodies but it was not Anatomy Refinement. Sinbad wasn't the same in that regard, the blood he absorbed did not miraculously strengthen his body in the same way. However, what it did do was raise both his Anatomy and Essence cultivations at the same time. This was one of the features of his Devil Heart.
Regular devils didn't have mana circuits or mana cores so they couldn't digest the magical essence needed to perform Anatomy Refinement, but that was not the same for a Paragon. They had access to Anatomy Refinement and that was simply better.
Although the typical blood body strengthening that devils had was similar to Anatomy Refinement, at the end of the day it was more of an inferior imitation. Traditional Anatomy Refinement was a lot more painful but it was also a lot more efficient and most importantly didn't come with side effects.
The ability to raise Anatomy and Essence in conjunction was just one of the features of his Devil Heart, something that later became enhanced when he met the Venerable Blood Tree.
You see, when Sinbad's parents revealed their plan to kill and sacrifice all the devils that came with them, Sinbad did not adhere to them like he usually would. He had other ideas that had been brewing in his mind since the beginning, and that was to rule the devils and utilise his Arch Paragon Influence.
Of course, the devils tried to run during these revelations but they were easily immobilised. In any case, Sinbad had negotiated with his parents on what to do with them because he had known in his heart that he was born to rule the devil race. His parents just had doubts even with knowledge of his physique because devils were just that unscrupulous, and they only became worse the further they went in their faulty strengthening system.
Furthermore, their plan to obtain safety in the dangerous forest hinged on them offering sacrifices to what they had previously called the 'Demonic Blood Tree', so it wasn't just a bad idea to save the devils, it was actually foolish.
But in the end, they decided to bring all the devils alive and try to strike a conversation as early as possible to avoid immediate confrontation, in which they would ask for terms for safety and offer the lives of only a few devils.
