Bricked device?

I unlocked the bootloader through mi unlock tool. I flashed official twrp from their site, 3.3.1-0-violet.img but when I tried booting it into recovery, it got stuck at twrp logo. Then I learnt that it's necessary to wipe userdata using fastboot first so I did that. Then, when twrp started, it was unable to install/wipe/mount any partition. Tried installing magisk using sideload, did work but then device stopped booting.
Figured out a way on how to fix the mount issue, twrp working fine, but then I accidentally wiped /system. Now my device only opens in fastboot, even though I've tried installing, erasing and reinstalling that twrp recovery as well as a couple of others I found in pixel experience forums for my device.
I've got all the stuff needed to install pixel experience, fcrypto disabler, xiaomi latest firmware and the rom itself. Can anyone guide me on how to install it using fastboot?
Also whenever I try booting the recovery image straight from fastboot, it says that command failed, too many links.
I can't boot into recovery via vol up + power button, fastboot doesn't recognize command fastboot reboot recovery.

you need to install stock rom ,then flash twrp but newer unofficial twrp and orangefox twrp boots into recovery even if system partition is empty.
try installing unofficial twrp or orangefox.
orangefox is recommended .
