You must firstly go down the Spire of Ringing Truth to complete the Abyss challenge called the Ether's Rest Abyss. The initial stage of the climb entails the use of fans to fly and jump, however, the actual challenge starts when you are within the main structure.

The Rotating Room Puzzle

Entering the first part, make a search in the high part of the wall for a small notch.Use Axiom ability to spin the Room in Crimson Desert.

The layers must be turned until the holes of the interior and exterior walls coincide. When they fit you are allowed to go in and a fan will take you to the next level.

Sunshine Puzzle

There is a mechanism on the second floor which needs Nature’s Grasp. Take advantage of the skill to lift the object completely to the top then wait 5-10 seconds before it rests on the tiny platform beneath.

A sound effect when landing correctly will be heard which reveal that another circle for your Axiom ability has opened. Use it to spin the room again.

You want to spin the area till the area under the column you have moved is clear daylight. Find the real sun, not the artificial light, so as to know that you are in the right place in Crimson Desert.

Reaching the Power Cube

Once you make it through the sunshine hole you will encounter more jumping and fans. This is easier with the Cooking Pot in Chapter 4 that can be used to store stuff.

On one of the platforms, as you fly up with fans to maintain your stamina high, you should see a device (a Power Cube).

With the Cooking Pot, you only need to land, insert the Power Cube into your pot and proceed to fly to the uppermost level. Lacking the pot means having to carry it by hand which is very challenging when going through the fans.

Activating the Final Fan

There is a slot in the top level which already has one Power Cube and another unoccupied space next to it. Remove your Power Cube out of the Cooking Pot and drop it on the blank space in Crimson Desert.

You do not need it to be in any especial position, as long as it crackles with electricity and powers the platform. When the two cubes are engaged, you are then propelled up into the next area of the Abyss by the large central fan.
