Once a large amount of space had been sealed off, all ordinary Legendary-tier "short-range teleportation spells" inevitably had their effects greatly diminished. Thus, Owen's displacement using "Flash" had only brought him to the edge of the "Spatial Lockdown" area. This position was clearly still within the attack range of the two Legendary Mages.
