    1). Buy a new master cylinder.
    2). take it to a brake repair specialist who can remove the stuck piece and then sleeve it for you so it can be re-used.
    3). track down another used master cylinder and put a kit through it.
    Those are about all the options I can think of but if that piston is stuck so solid that compressed air wont move it then number two is probably your best and cheapest,particularly if you hace them put in a stainless steel sleeve as it will never need to be rebuilt again.

      Re-bleed your system and push it out with the hydraulic pressure (it has much more force than pneumatic pressure).
