The answer may be somewhat obvious to many of you, nonetheless, I'm not a plumber. So...
The toilet is at the west end of the bathroom, against the north wall, the waste drain pipe (the sloping horizontal) runs directly below running parallel with the north wall, from west to drain in the east (from the vertical toilet drain junction to where the waste pipe exits the house to the septic, (through east wall), about 16 ft.
If I wanted to move the toilet 6 ft east of its current position, would the job simply be to open up a new joint in waste pipe (to join toilet drain pipe) downstream, and cap the old vertical drain pipe? I'm not changing the horizontal pipe, its length, or pitch, though the toilet would drain further from the vent stack by 6 ft. The vent stack is presently about 12 inches from where the toilet merges with waste pipe.
