Tangut Character 18278

4729/6136

𘉸 is a Tangut character glossed as “skill” in Li Fanwen’s 2008 Tangut–Chinese dictionary. The Tangut (Xixia) script was created in 1036 to write the Tangut language and signal independence from Song China. Its forms were modeled on Chinese writing, but it records a different language; later it appeared in government records and Buddhist texts. It is written text, not emoji artwork: a font draws its glyph.

Why does 𘉸 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.
