What 𘁷 means
It is a Tangut character; 18077 is not its translation.
18077 is its entry number in Unicode’s Tangut list; it gives no reading or translation. A Tangut dictionary or the manuscript sentence around the sign is needed to interpret it.
The Tangut script was devised in 1036 for the Western Xia (Xixia) kingdom, serving state needs and the translation of a Buddhist canon, a collection of sacred texts. Surviving texts include Buddhist works, laws, translations from Chinese, Confucian classics, military treatises, and literature. Tangut design drew on Chinese and Khitan writing, but it was a separate script; that influence does not make 𘁷 a Chinese character. The latest known Tangut inscription is dated 1502.
How do I display 𘁷?

1Why does 𘁷 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
