As a note, officially speaking Demonic and Spirit energies are two sides of the same coin. They are the same things as Chi or Mana. The Demonic counterpart actually 'does' appear to also function similarly to real-world radiation, in that it is highly mutagenic and tends to make the air glow at night (see the entry on Demon Realms for reference).

Spirit Energy and Demonic Energy can also be likened to the Yin-Yang, as they are considered to be coexisting opposites. Spirit Energy is the equivalent of Male energy in Yin-Yang; Demonic Energy would equate to Female.
