"To force out the very source of light itself, whose power is infinite in its own right, demands that its puller possess a similarly infinite strength forged from their unconquerable will. It is only from a spirit that does not bow to darkness that light can be pulled from the nothingness"

I'm guessing you mean in reference to this part? My wording might be a bit shaky on it, since I wrote it late at night, but it's supposed to state that only a soul that can resist and stand up to darkness can pull out light. It's not saying anything about a light untouched by darkness, but what it is meant to suggest is that a spirit that resists the darkness can pull out light. Sei is touched by darkness on all sides, but he hasn't succumbed to it. The Shiroyasha persona is the literal manifestation of it, but he manages to resist and holds onto himself. Through a lifetime of struggle, he still has a hand on his light, even if darkness surrounds him and hits him hard. In a way, this is my own take on the whole idea of "willpower = strength", but without using the shonen cliche of friendship. "forged from their unconquerable will" and "a spirit that does not bow to darkness" are the phrases used to state its requirements, which I do think Sei embodies. As you and I have agreed upon, Sei's greatest strength is his tenacity and willpower, so I'd think this plays right up his alley. Anyways, I hope that makes sense, I'm typing this in a rush before heading to class.
