When I am flying the A350 with this route, I click the time jump button, then my plane just go underground
Time skip below ground

Try not clicking the time jump button.

Try not clicking the time jump button.
if not, what is the meaning of having this button

Big time jumps must presume long trans continental flights with long legs?

This probably happens when the remaining flight distance is too short for the time jump.Therefore, the time jump should stop approximately 150 nm before the destination/airport. This allows for a descent and landing.

The time skip jump is always about 1/10th of the total distance. So for long distance flights the jumps are very long and for short flights they are quite short.
But the time skip only jumps to a position on the route. So if the route altitude is messed up for some reason this might explain why you end up below ground. But I have not yet been able to replicate this, normally this works without issue.

I've mentioned this a lot and I don't want to bother you, but shouldn't the time skip feature be under our control or leave it somewhere near the TOD point? As you said, it goes fast on long-haul flights, and when I use the feature towards the end, it takes me straight to the landing. This issue is very important to me.

Totally agree

yeah that happened to me in the Cessna 172. It happened I think bc I was clicking buttons to fast. I pressed start and it froze for 2 mins then I was underground.
