Just like on a piece of paper, the shortest distance between two black dots is to draw a straight line; but if the paper is folded, the two black dots overlap, and the distance is infinitely close to zero.
Before reaching the Refining Void stage, a cultivator could only rely on their own escape technique to travel, moving either in a straight line or along a curved path; but once at the Refining Void stage, they can fold space, using spatial teleportation so that the distance between one location to another is infinitely close to zero once the coordinates are determined.
Lu Xuanji's thoughts flickered as he determined the coordinates, confirmed the exact distance, and began to fold space, disappearing in an instant.
Ripples flashed in the void, and he appeared at a position five light years away, albeit slightly off mark.
He recalibrated the coordinates and moved quickly.
Yet the orientation had its deviations, continuously corrected.
