Why my 6 burning oil but, not leaking

I purchased the car 2 weeks ago at the Carlot and it has 110000 miles on the car. The car runs great but, I just noticed that it is seems to be burning a lot of oil. I don't see any leaks anywhere what could be going on. I need to know where to start. PLEASE?

How many miles are you driving and how much oil are you using in those mile's?That's where we start.

Losing a Qt oil in less than 500 miles-best check the engine compression could be valves/seals/stems and rings
