“Cumulative with the bonus from an actual shield” and “does not allow a subject without a shield to block” are the key phrases that lead me to agree that you do not need a shield to cast the spell.

Also, “conjures an invisible shield” is the first phrase in the description. If it required an actual shield, it would instead say something along the lines of improving the bonus of an existing shield.
