What can easily remove the blood in the flooring?

Honestly, unless you know whose blood it is, you should contact a professional biocleaner to get the blood out - you don't know if the blood has HIV, hepatitis, or any of a number of nasty diseases. A professional can safely remove the flooring with the blood in it and let you get back to your project. If you know whose blood it is (such as your own) and that it's safe for you to work with, you can try bleach to get the color out. However, you aren't going to actually get the blood out, just remove the color so you can't see it.
