In Chapter 9 of Crimson Desert, the New Perspectives subquest sends you chasing after the elusive Master Du, and the “Speak with Master Du” objective can feel like a puzzle‑locked wall rather than a simple conversation. The good news is that there are two clean ways to do it: you can either solve the Abyss puzzle properly or use a clever stamina‑jump trick to bypass the hard part and talk to him anyway.

To reach Master Du, you first need to go to the Spire of the Sun, climb the stairs, and enter the Abyss through the gateway at the top. After navigating the first few straightforward sections, you’ll hit the tricky part: a complex ring‑puzzle area where you must rotate and align parts to restore the Abyss flow and activate an air vent. If you solve the puzzle correctly, the vent powers up, letting you fly up with your movement ability and land on the upper platform where Master Du stands, ready to talk and close the “Speak with Master Du” objective.
Crimson Desert: Master Du “New Perspectives” path checklist
If you’re stuck on the puzzle, there’s a neat bypass trick: at the right spot, you can chain triple‑jumps with Force Palm and repeatedly use your up‑stabs while eating stamina‑restoring food to push yourself higher into the air, then vault onto the top ledge without solving the ring‑puzzle at all. This method eats stamina fast, so keep health and food stocked, but it’s a solid way to keep the story moving if the puzzle is throwing you off.

FAQs
Q: Do I have to solve the Abyss puzzle to talk to Master Du in New Perspectives?
No; you can either solve the ring puzzle to open the air vent and fly up, or use a stamina‑jump trick with triple‑jumps and stabs to climb the wall and reach him without completing the puzzle.
Q: Where exactly is Master Du waiting in the Abyss?
He’s on a higher ledge at the end of the Spire of the Sun Abyss section, just above the complex ring‑puzzle area, which you access by solving the ring puzzle or by using the jump‑and‑stab bypass method.
