“They would have had to evolve and advance to some kind of super-advanced civilization themselves. And that takes billions of years if we’re any example.”
Just like our primitive tools to see them based on our own technology as an example, this perspective is just as primitive in perspective based on our own capabilities.
“Time and/or distance” needs to be completely removed from the perspective. They can jump into a portal anywhere in the universe, choose a time and place on the other side of the universe and exit from a portal there. Time and space is selective and the entering and exit of these portals can happen in just minutes.

A similar idea was posited by James Clerk Maxwell in the 19th century in one of his 200 quaternions (special field equations). Maxwell also unified the theories of electricity and magnetism; he also advanced Kinetic gas theory, took the first color photograph, developed ways to analyze stress in a structure, and even laid the foundations of cybernetics.
A self-taught mathematician who lived with his mommy, Oliver Heaviside was disgusted by Maxwell’s’ field equations, calling them abominations, threw out all but 4 and converted those 4 to vector equations - giving us all we know of about the entire electromagnetic spectrum.
