The official framework documentation tells you exactly how to upgrade:

https://laravel.com/docs/5.7/upgrade

https://laravel.com/docs/5.8/upgrade

https://laravel.com/docs/6.x/upgrade

https://laravel.com/docs/7.x/upgrade

Step 1 : Remove the followings from your composer.json file

"laravelcollective/html": "^5.4.0",
"yajra/laravel-datatables-oracle": "^8.4"

Step 2 : Replace this line

"laravel/framework": "5.6.*",

To this

"laravel/framework": "^6.0",

Step 3 : Run Following commands in order 

composer require laravel/helpers
composer require laravelcollective/html
composer require yajra/laravel-datatables-oracle
composer require yajra/laravel-datatables-buttons
composer require yajra/laravel-datatables-html
composer require yajra/laravel-datatables-fractal
composer require yajra/laravel-datatables-editor
composer update
composer dumpa

Key Point to notice and understand is whenever you want to upgrade make sure all the packages you're using have compatibility with correct versions of laravel and php. Check and follow the repo. on git to get notified if any new upgrades are there.

That's It, You're Good to go.
