Thinking about it, that made sense. Cultivators at the late and peak stages of the Twenty-second Heaven of Near-Saint were among the strongest beings in the Outer Realm. In the various sects, they would all be Grand Elders. Every one of them had lived for countless years, so they surely knew a great deal about Saint-grade Heavenly Treasures, including information on many rare ones. Capturing them would undoubtedly help Ling Tian find all kinds of Saint-grade Heavenly Treasures.
Besides, these cultivators surely had some Saint-grade Heavenly Treasures in their possession. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been easy for them to reach such high cultivation levels. They would probably be willing to "buy their freedom" with Saint-grade Heavenly Treasures, which would undoubtedly help Ling Tian and the others obtain quite a few.

Those whose cultivation was far beyond his surely possessed Saint-grade Heavenly Treasures—and probably more than just one or two.
Even if they weren't carrying any Saint-grade Heavenly Treasures, once their disciples learned they had been captured, they would likely be willing to offer some in exchange for their freedom. That would let Ling Tian and the others obtain all kinds of Saint-grade Heavenly Treasures in a short time.
