Before you can play the new DLC you first need to beat Blasphemous. This means reaching the final boss and defeating them. Once the final boss is defeated you will see the credits roll and will unlock the option to ascend your playthrough. Ascending your playthrouh triggers NG+ which let's players keep the following:

Prayers.
Relics.
Rosary Beads.
Hearts.
Abilities.

While the above items are what players get to keep, NG+ resets a number of things players will have to find all over again. The things that reset in Blasphemous NG+ are:

Collectibles.
Bile Flask upgrades.
Fervour upgrades.
Health upgrades.
Rosary Knot upgrades.
Quest, boss, general exploration, and key items.

When you encounter any of the items that carry over in your NG+ playthrough you will find Tears of Atonement in their place. You will also notice at the start of NG+ a new item called the Petrified Bell which allows you to access the DLC. When ready to take on a harder challenge Ascend your save file (this is permanent so think hard about it).

Reach New Area Calle Petrous

Once you've Ascended your game you will begin a new game in the Brotherhood of the Silent Sorrow. Complete the tutorial section and defeat the boss to reach The Holy Line. In the second room of The Holy Line walk forward until the Petrified Bell begins to ring. At the spot it rings use the Weight of Sin (ground pound) to reveal a section heading down. This section takes your to Petrous.

Meet NPC Jibrael
