IMO D.

not as X but as Y.

A/B/C - we need an adverb to modify adjective (permanent).
E - wrong usage of idiom idiom.

This is similar to the recently extended sales slump problem in OG. They often change adverb to adjective and make the meaning wrong.
Getting defeated is just a temporary notion, giving it up is what makes it permanent.

A--uses "seeming" to modify permanent. If we're going to modify an adjective, we have to do it with an adverb. "Seemingly" would work.
B--same as A
C--same as A and B

D and E both use "seemingly" correctly, so now we have to analyze in more detail.

D uses parallel form well ("not as...but as"), while E does not ("not as...but"), so we can eliminate E.
