Actually, unless I missed something, the passage you refer to in Romans does not mention the blood of Christ. HOwever, here is a scripture that applies the blood at the point of faith in Christ:
Romans 3:25 God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement,
through faith in his blood. He did this to demonstrate his justice, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished-- 26
he did it to demonstrate his justice at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.
The following scriptures do not contain the words "faith" and "blood" in the same sentence, but in context the subject is faith in Christ:
Romans 5:9,
Hebrews 9:14, 1 John 1:7,
Revelation 1:5.
I looked diligently but I didn't find any scripture that directly linked baptism and the application of the blood.
