Resonance fluorescence, the process in which a single two-level quantum emitter interacts with a near-resonant coherent light, is a cornerstone of quantum optics as a paradigmatic light-matter interaction. Quantum phenomena in resonance fluorescence have been accounted for in terms of one- and two-photon processes; however, the physical processes arising from the interaction of a single two-level atom with higher photon numbers remain unexplored experimentally. Here we experimentally reveal the multiphoton scattering nature of resonance fluorescence, which intrinsically gives rise to multiphoton entanglement. By accessing quantum fluctuations in the field emitted from a cavity-quantum electrodynamics system, we resolve third- and fourth-order photon scattering events from a single two-level atom. In the three-photon component, the scattered photons are shown to be genuinely energy-time entangled, as verified by a violation of Svetlichny's inequality. As a demonstration of an application, a quantum secret sharing protocol (QSS) is implemented using this entangled photon source. Our study refines the descriptive framework of resonance fluorescence and broadens the scope of its investigation. It also establishes a fundamentally simple route for generating multiphoton entangled states for quantum information processing and quantum metrology.
