Traveling between planes comes in many different ways... This had been mentioned before.
And using different "gates" and "circles" for travel would produce different effects; the time spent varies, and it could even affect the degree of power decline and the recovery speed... This had also been mentioned before.
However, no matter how long the travel took, for those moving between planes, it was just a blink of an eye, as if closing and opening their eyes was all the time it took.
This seemed to have been mentioned too.

So, at the moment Raphael opened his eyes, he immediately saw the snow-covered ground, and at the same time, he felt his power decline... From Heaven to Hell in one breath, and then from Hell across the Shadow Realm and the Void Realm, finally arriving at the Main Plane. He didn't feel great.
His power had declined very seriously, probably by more than half.
