Before you can get the Ultima, you need to get its base weapon first, which is the Ragnarok. You can attain the Ragnarok blueprint after completing the Blacksmith’s Blues side quests. You will also need the Ragnarok to use as a crafting component for Gotterdammerung. The Blacksmith’s Blues side quest is divided into part I, II, III, and IV. You can unlock each of them after completing the main story chapters 35, 47, 59, and 62.
After that, visit Cid’s Hideaway and craft the Ragnarok and complete the main story. This will unlock New Game+, and you will automatically attain the Utterance of Creation. Besides that, you will also need 3x Ultima Weapon Crafting Materials, after which you can visit Blackthorne and forge the Ultima Weapon. This sword has 700 in attack and staggers, making it a worthwhile weapon to use in NG+.
