I have found many default derivation path online which is used in bitcoin core, but i still can't get the correct one so that i can import my bitcoin wallet to my electrum wallet (BIP 39 option) with 18 words seed which i had got from bitsblock.io while initial download. I wanted to know how can we exactly find the derivation path in Qt GUI, as i had found a command online wallet.keystore.derivation but it doesn't work.

How to find/view derivation path in Bitcoin Core

See Default derivation paths

so that i can import my bitcoin wallet to my electrum wallet

I've read this cannot be done in Electrum.

18 words seed which i had got from bitsblock.io while initial download.

That's not Bitcoin core!

The bitsblock.io website copied the visual style of Bitcoin.org -- which seems a bit suspicious?

It is a recently created domain

Domain Name: BITSBLOCK.IO
Creation Date: 2019-10-23T15:24:40Z

You simply can not, they are completely incompatible.

Bitcoin Core uses hardened derivation and Electrum does not.
