Does cloudflare change my server IP address?

I use cloudflare for DNS management. Does it change my IP address? I've heard that I cannot get my default IP address of my server with ping, so how to get my default IP address?

Using CloudFlare doesn't change your server IP address. If you're doing lookups against the domain, however, our IPs are going to show because we act as a reverse proxy for your site (doing a dig, ping, traceroute, etc. to the domain will show our IPs). We're still resolving the site to the IP address you have in your DNS settings.
