Or for a real answer, fire, lots, and lot, and LOTS of fire, and lots of holy (metamagic up'd flamestrikes and sunrays maybe?) preferably used after someone throws some potent debuffs on that monstrous being.
Do you even have a artifact weapon? Cause if not the whole exercise is meaningless since he's MR 10.
If your characters have mythic ranks themselves, and are the appropriate CR, you will have many routes to victory.
I recommend the spell Disrupting Weapon, boosting the save DC way, way up. Use Mythic Spell Focus (Transmutation) and/or Persistent Metamagic for your best odds. Disruption destroys vampires utterly without that tedious tracking down the coffin business.
The villain has only 20 HD; with a bit of preparation you can get the caster level of a Undeath Ward spell over 20. That will prevent it from using its melee against you, which is a huge part of this particular vampire's threat.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold on a second... this is a vampire with Mythic Ranks and Mythic Tiers? And 20 tiers in Champion?
I'm pretty sure both of those traits are breaking the rules of mythic, how does he expect the players to do anything against this guy?
Need to more know about your PCs.
What are your assets? Do you have a Holocaust Cloak?

step 1: burn the character sheet.
step 2: take a speaker magnet to the DM's computer/phone/whatever device he has the sheet saved on.
step 3: delete this thread so all evidence is lost.
What level/composition is the party?
So, I'm not completely familiar with how mythic works. And I know mythic can do some absolutely ridiculous stuff. But there is one thing I do know. And that is that the caster/martial disparity always wins. And this vampire is not a caster, he is a fighter.
Well, we might need a bit more than just spells. Every PC will need Dampen Presence to keep that blind helm from working, or a spell that negates blindsight (I know one exists but I forget what). Then, cast mind blank on everyone. Then cast greater invisibility on everyone. Now start flinging spells and attacks and finish him off with an artifact weapon. He also lacks blindfight, so I hope he has fun not being able to deal with invisibility in any way. Get a few firearms on people and you should be equally good. That or have everyone equipped with 11th CL wands of scorching ray to really put him in his place since his touch AC sucks (as it would). He has no spell resistance so he is entirely reliant on his saves to keep him alive! So unless that ring of spell storing has some kind of a catch-all solution to this strategy, this guy is boned against a properly prepared full caster of roughly 16th level.
I'm assuming you are at least near level 20 and have Mythic yourself? Without looking too deeply here (just looking at AC and HP), Mythic Vital Strike + all Vital strike feats + that Mythic ability that lets you take an extra standard should be enough to one round kill him solo if you have an optimized dude. Throw in a party member with Sensei/Monk of the 4 winds and optimize initiative so he can give everyone in the party 3 standard actions via Slow Time and this isn't even fair for the bad guy.
Eh. Acquire Planeshift and Mythic Wish Cast Planeshift, use M. Wish to make his saving throw a 1. Dump his ass in the positive energy plane and laugh at his lack of ability to escape.
Alternatively you can replace planeshift with something like Imprison or similar spell that ends you on a single failed save.

To expand further on this: Should your DM decide that this ring of spell storing is a ring of 'solution to current magical problem', set up Aroden's Spellbane keyed to: Antimagic Field, Aroden's Spellbane, Mage's Disjunction, Wish. Then Lesser Globe of Invulnerability to keep away Glitterdusts and Invisibility Purges.
Depending on setup time for all this, open up a Greater Demiplane with Timeless with Respect to Magic and cause time in the plane to be exceedingly slower to real time. Use this extra time to set up more spells and defences, and divine whatever is in that ring, along with further complications, as well as prepare for a scry and fry, which is the best way to begin this fight. Hell, get some simulacrums ready to port in and apply healing and scrolls where needed, and some clones for good measure. Have some telepathic bonds set up for this. If you are a 17th level wizard, nobody in this party needs to be physically present for the fight. Just have everyone go in under astral projection. You can also set up an army in the demiplane to be brought in via Gate using Summon Monster IX. They don't disappear in the plane since magic lasts forever in there. This guy won't have much in the way of hit points if every round an endless horde of astral deva are pouring into the material plane, spamming heal and holy smite every round. This also means more bodies to throw between you and the big bad, who, while possessing a very frightening amouny of physical attacks of very serious pain, cannot kill all those angels before you kill him under all the protection you have layered onto yourself and your party.
Also, remember dimensional anchor. Do not let him get away with teleportation.

Technically, Undead do just fine one the Positive energy plane, since it grants unaligned Fast Healing and Undead are immune to the Save-or-Die from having too much.

I absolutely LOVE how the answer to any challenge in high level PF seems to be "use planeshift - drop critter somewhere it hurts!"...
P.S.
MEH!
Hard to say without knowing, what characters your group has.
If you do not have Mythic feats: A cyclops Helmet and a magic Scythe or Tetsubo should be sufficent to floor a 500hp guy on a Power Attacking lvl 20 melee character with one strike.
If you wanna make shure it crits use True Strike with some kind of spelltrigger item.
