I am using filters to delete messages, but they then appear in the trash, and there are a lot of them. I check the trash before deleting them, but when there are a lot, it's kind of a pain.

Is there a way to delete spam without having it appear in the trash or in junk?

There is some spam I simply never want to see.

In the advanced settings for junk, one option is to delete immediately.

How do I find that advanced setting? I only found the one that says "delete mail marked as junk after xx days". Anyway, I was looking to have mail marked for deletion in my filters there gone and not put in trash. Sorry if I was not clear in my question.
