I have a new phone which has all my data on it. I also have my old phone which also contains all my data. If I wipe my old phone, will my new phone be ok?

Taking off everything from old phone I currently have the iPhone Xs with all my information on it. I am trying to wipe out my old iPhone 6s plus . They are both connected through iCloud, so I was wondering if I factory wipe my old phone, will it take everything off my current one? Or do I still need to back up my old phone before wiping even though the current one I am using has everything on it and more.
