I made a game that has a loading screen that does the same thing you want. feel free to copy that part of my code and use it as you need. https://code.sololearn.com/WFseja10kYEQ/?ref=app

Short answer is JS is the only way. HTML can't make decisions. CSS is only for styles.

look in my javascript. find navigation functions. inside there you'll see setTimeout.... setTimeout(function() { load.style.display = "none"; }, 2000);//Time in ms, 1000ms = 1s the time is in milliseconds so if you want it to be 5 seconds change it from 2000 to 5000
